It has been a relatively mild winter in Perth so far\u2014mostly dry and not overly cold. I brought my camera along on a visit to the central business district, and took some pictures on a short walk. If you were to just look at these photographs, you could be forgiven for thinking it was a summer’s day. The images do not convey the brisk air.<\/p>\n

I shot all of these photographs with my old Nikon D70S and Nikkor 18\u201370 mm lens. Know your equipment: although the lens does go out to 18 mm (on a 1.5x sensor), there is significant barrel distortion at that focal length with this particular lens.

You will get significant less distortion while still retaining a relatively wide field of view.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
