Yesterday, I went to Ancol beach, to hunt some good pictures there. Of course with my “model”. When the evening was passed (tepatnya habis maghrib), so many teenagers (boys and girls) were wasting their time, dating at the beach. I don’t know what they have done because the place was so dark.

Below is the picture of the beach i got using my Canon kit lens 18-55mm f/3.5-f-5.6. I had made the camera setting with ISO 1600, Tv=1/10 s, and Av=3.5.

The result was so dark, nothing could be seen.

But I got an idea. I took my great Canon 70-200mm f/4 L “Bazooka” lens out from my Focus01 bag. With the velbon tripod, I set the lens on the camera, and tried to shoot. You can see the result below…

Hahaha… such a wonderful thing…

The other thing I like from this bazooka is when I capture the moonlight. With steady tripod, the fullmoon captured will be so beautiful. It looks like a sunkist-navel orange, my favourite fruit.

The result, I crop the picture 100% and it looks so beautiful.

So… Lets go hunting…
