Posing

Posing at the Tidal Basin with cherry blossoms.

With all of the tourists in town for the cherry blossoms, it’s a great time for taking pictures of people taking pictures. In my walk around the Tidal Basin I was asked to take two photos, which seems like a lot for a guy wearing a baseball cap and glasses.

We have a tall cherry tree in the backyard, so I don’t need to go all the way down to the Tidal Basin to see blossoms. They’re a bit far up there though, so it’s a good opportunity to use one of my longer lenses. For this I used my favorite, a 135/3.5 Super Takumar, with an extension tube for closer focusing.
