Finally got around to my Nikon 1.8 35mm. Hope I'm doing it right.

Great shots! I was looking at getting this lense the other day.

Love the yellow calipers. They go good with the yellow fogs

Being a black car really blends it in.

It was a spur of the moment shoot. I was waiting for my buddy and I had the cam in my trunk so I figured why not?

I got a question. Does being a bit too close to your subject cause blur? Or was that lack of focus?

That lens produces insanely crisp shots and can focus on one very small section of the car. Play with the settings and play with the f-stop, which adjusts the focus to concentrated areas or a large area. Before pulling the trigger to take a photo, hold it halfway down and you'll see through the viewfinder what part of the subject the lens will autofocus on with a flashing red light.

What camera body do you have? I learned a lot just by watching YouTube tutorials...and practice! I don't use my camera nearly as much as I should, but practicing certainly helps

I have the nikon d3100 body but I'll try your suggestions. Thank you.

The higher the f stop number (aperture), the less blurry effect you will get - it's called bokeh and its desirable in a lot of situations. Increasing that f stop number will make your pictures sharper, but darker. You'll have to compensate by adding a longer shutter speed or increasing the ISO. PM me if you have any photography questions... I'm a novice and still learning though!
