Tough lighting lately with all the rain, but trying to get out and take some shots between storms. Here's a few from over the last couple of weeks. Thanks in advance for any and all critique and opinions.

What lens did you use if you don't mind me asking?


I take pictures, I lift heavy things put them down and repeat.

Super nice series Ken. You began and ended the series with some very nice photographs. The second before last is a great pose.
