Not So Super Day

Went to Superday this year. The annual kids day at the park. With many food vendors, assorted kids rides and activities, exhibits, and in my opinion WAY to many vendors selling products/services. Seems like its becoming more and more a business day in the park.

The not so super part is the new Mayor of the city made some changes. The worst was eliminating the car show. Which has always been a huge part of the day. And gives the adults something to do. They eliminated a few other events they've done in the past. I guess that's called progress?

I went and wandered around. Wanted to take some car photos with my new camera! Instead I took some random photos around the park. Which was ok too. Lets get to that shall we?

I took my 'new' K-01 camera, along with a 21 mm wide angle and a 10-17mm fisheye zoom.
Closeups of a nice white flower in a flower bed.
A small bubbling fountain outside the Botanic Gardens building
A weed shot with a very narrow depth of field. These kind of shots are a little trickier to get with this mirrorless camera, looking at focus on the back screen. And the breeze blowing the weeds around sure doesn't help.
The only shot with the fisheye zoom. Angled so theres really no fisheye distortion. Just a nice day on the lake.

While the lack of car show made Superday considerably less super for me, there is a bit of good news! On July 4th, along with fireworks that night, there will be a car show that day. So maybe I can make up for it soon!
