心之芳庭,一處把浪漫堆砌得很著痕跡的地方。到訪的星期天,本來不大的地方,人擠得彷如置身狄士尼樂園的美國小鎮大街,一雙雙情侶,陶醉於只容得下二人的世界中,擠人不擠人,管它呢。

Shots taken in Moncoeur 心之芳庭, during my Taiwan trip (Central Taiwan, 台中) 2011 Easter holiday.

I am beginning to explore the possibility of shooting in extremely low light conditions! The mood and the color can be very different from day shots!

This orchid sits in my dinning room, where NO LIGHTS were on, the only light source is from the kitchen about 6 feet away. I’m impressed that I took the photo HANDHELD (with IS (image stabilizer) of the lens switched on, 1/6 second, wide-open, ISO 3200) and the images are reasonably sharp!

Thanks for the great IS of the amazing canon EF 100mm f2.8L lens, and the wonderful noise control of Canon 5D mark II!
