About a week ago, when I left the dojo after the morning Aikido class, the weather was too nice to do what I was supposed to, so I went down to Pacific Ave in Santa Cruz, grabbed a bite to eat then spent some time wandering around the area learning to shoot with my 20mm lens. I was somewhat surprised at how educational it can be to go on a photo walk with a new focal length, especially one that isn't in the "standard" range. I'd say that my chief lesson of the day is to use a wide angle lens to include more of the background, no matter how much of the frame the primary subject fills.

With all of the work that I've been doing on the house, I didn't get around to processing those shots until this afternoon. When I was processing them, I saw this street shot of a 20ish year old roadbike and thought of Frank, so I processed it in black and white:
