Here is my entry for Anne of Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. This week Anne wants us to show off a lens we use for our walks or photo shoots. I’m choosing two lenes.
This first lens I will use when I’m at flower fields. It’s my Sony FE 70-200 F4G OSS lens. It’s my best lens and I love the natural bokeh it delivers. Here are a few photos I took the last time I was at the peony gardens.
My Sony E-Mount 18-200 lens is my typical go to lens. I took it to Yaquina Head Lighthouse National Park that day before Oregon shut down for Covid back in March of 2020. Here are a few photos from there.
I’ve gathered a list of challenges and their hosts. So if you know a challenge host, please direct them to my blog. Feel free to contact me anytime. I hope everyone will be able to use my list

Beautiful images for this challenge Cee! Both lenses are great. With your 70 – 200 mm you don’t need a dedicated macro lens. And your 18 – 200 mm is a great walk around lens. Of course you are behind the camera!

Nope macro needed. I only have one true macro lens and I don’t use it that often. This 70-200 lens was an expensive lense, but oh so worth it. I can actually take 200mm at about 3 feet away, which makes for a wonderful macro.

Beautiful photos, Cee. With your great results, you’ve inspired me to try my zoom lens for macro photography. 😉

You just have to learn how close you can get and be able to zoom all the way in. It all depends on the lens. Have fun experimenting. 😀

Stunning captures at both the Peony Gardens and Yaquina Head. It think this challenge has been interesting to see lens preferences. I loved the beach photo. Great places to walk your walk, Cee.

Gorgeous shots. I don’t understand the numbers with the lenses but I can work out their merits from your photos. I agree with Anne, though, that you are behind each lens, with your skill.

Beautiful images from both lenses Cee – obviously the talent is the photographer not the equipment!! I truly miss my Nikon 70-200 which was wonderful but just got too heavy for me to carry. The bokeh was marvelous, and your images with your Sony remind me very much of why I so miss it!

They sound like the same lenses. Mine is a heavy lens too, but thankfully I have a real steady hand. 😀 😀
