Personal- A new lens & a jar of buttons

In anticipation of the spring/summer photography season, I made a list of must-haves. Like a new camera case and a new lens. Today was the day to shop so I asked my friend, Shelley, to go with me. I knew she would jump in the car when I said "camera store".

After 30 minutes of trying out camera cases, I decided the decision was too much for me (and the camera store guy) today so I went on to the lens on my list. A 50mm 1.4. This decision was a little easier. I made the purchase and Shelley and I were off to North Market for some yummy Vietnamese soup.

Fast forward to home. I got out the jar of buttons I saved from my Mom who was a seamstress.....an awesome seamstress. The photo below was taken with my Nikon D700 and the new 50mm 1.4. The bokeh is dreamy and I am in love :)
