GESO - Prime Lens Sunday

I went out with several local shooters on Sunday for a Prime Lens walkabout. The premise is that you use a prime (or one focal length of a zoom), and shoot with that the entire time. I used my A50 f/2. http://www.flickr.com/photos/alohadave/sets/72157623711330929/ -- Aloha Photographer Photobl
