Fremantle’s Fishermen’s Co-op building at night
Architecture NightFremantle’s Fishermen’s Co-op building, as viewed from Bathers Beach in Fremantle on a cloudy and still Autumn night:
I’ve been relying on the versatile 24-105mm too much, so this week I decided to challenge myself and use my simplest and cheapest lens, the Canon 50mm f/1.8 (aka the nifty fifty).
I was pleasantly surprised with the results – I’m definitely going to be using the nifty fifty more often!

Below is a selection of my favourite photos:

If you haven’t already seen my photos from the first and second nights, I’d love it if you could take a look.
Overall, I found the Triple Walk Workshop very useful. I learnt a few things, met some interesting people and took hundreds of photos in manual mode.
I’d like to thank Daniel for showing us some great photo spots, and giving us some great tips.
