Today I shall digress from food.

I was at Central Park again today. This park does cover a large area and I still haven’t been to the top third of it. It runs from 60th St to 110St (roughly), so it is rather huge.

Just walked around and managed a few decent shots.

This is Belvedere Castle. It’s one of the highest spots in Central Park and you can get a good view of the surrounding areas, like below.

It’s still warm on occasion, and most people just like to bask in the sun. There are plenty of tourists as well as locals who come to the park, so it’s always rowdy.

I am becoming more accustomed to my camera. Heh, it took me only nearly two half years to get the hang of it. I know I complain about the viewfinder and dinky screen, but in broad daylight, they are quite useable.

I remember to reset all the settings when taking a new lot of photos, and leaving the ISO at 1600 is a disaster waiting to happen. I’m also starting to know what settings to dial in when given a certain scene. Just continuing to work on my framing and I’m quite happy to lug my 1.2kg camera around as a form of exercise if I can get the kind of shots I want. Heh.
