Sunset on 11/08/2009

I’ve shown you that my new Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 (It’s quite a mouthful!) does decent HD shooting (including zooming) and its Food and Sunset mode fulfill their duties. Today we’ll take a look at its incredible lens — from 25 to 300mm!

With its 25mm wide-angle lens, I’m finally able to take San Francisco, Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, Marin, and SF Bay all in! I had wanted to do this for years, but now I’m finally able to do it!

And its 300mm telephoto enabled me to present you the famous Golden Gate Bridge here! Doesn’t it look like the eyes of Cheshire Cat from “Alice in Wonderland“? The cat has disappeared into the night, but his grinning eyes are still on the canvas for my camera.

After 5pm, the sun had set and it was getting dark. I took a few shots but didn’t expect any of them to be bloggable. Well, was I wrong! David fell in love with this Jupiter-like sunset and insisted that I post it. Yes, Sir!
