What a nice weekend. We spent it primarily enjoying the sunshine in the garden, although we did get out for a couple of nice long drives. Our garden activities were primarily spring prunings, repotting, and fertilizing. Temperatures haven't turned warm yet, so most of our plants are still holding out for the real deal.Friday night, we went out with Chris to one of our favorite restaurants: Lime in the Castro. Fun music, cool ambiance, very fine mojitos, and mini-hamburgers. Oh, and mini-ice cream cookies for desert! Last night, we all went out to El Torreador in West Portal--one of our favorite Mexican restaurants.
And one other fun photo...something you just don't see every day.
[Oh, by the way...there were no lollypops. Just teasing.]

Nice water droplets.
How do you manage to get so much stuff in focus? Whenever I use my zoom for macro stuff, it seems only one small range is in focus and the rest is horribly out of focus (now admittedly, sometimes I want that effect, but not always).
Well, nothing fancy going on here. I don't have manual controls for depth of field, so I have just gotten a sense of how this lens works. YOU on the other hand, have tons of manual controls for depth of field. Remember that depth of field varies a lot depending on your zoom. So, try the same f-stop at your minimum and maximum zoom on a macro subject. (You'll have to move yourself, of course.) This should give you a better sense of your particular lens' behavior.
I thought Archie Bunker's chair was in the Smithsonian!
Heh, I think that Judy Garland's ruby slippers are probably stuck under the chair too.
