Thanks to the good graces of the mythical girlfriend, I have an annual pass for the Georgia Aquarium. \u00a0Since I have a little bit of time off, I decided that I would spend more or less an entire day at the aquarium, brushing up and playing experimenting with the camera of mine that I suck at using.<\/span><\/p>\n

Naturally, I decide to photograph aquatic life that stays about as still as waterfall, increasing the challenge even further.<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s a good thing that I’m of the mindset that a hundred photos need to be taken in order to yield one decent photograph. \u00a0That being said, I took somewhere around the neighborhood of 200 photographs; the first go-around, I think I deemed maybe like seven total photos to be “pretty good,” but perhaps I was in a better mood when I made my second pass, because somehow I ended up with slightly over 40 photos that I felt okay enough about showing.<\/span><\/p>\n

I did like three laps around every exhibit in the aquarium, changing lenses each time. \u00a0The first pass, I went with the 17-70 kit lens I got last summer, the second time around I switched to a 50mm lens, and for the last few photos of the entire\u00a0Ocean Voyager\u00a0<\/em>stage, I switched to a 10-20 wide angle lens.<\/span><\/p>\n
