who knew ?

I think you all know how much
I love my macro
and
I had it with me the other day when I decided
I.HAD.TO.GET.OUT.AND.SHOOT
OR
I.WAS.GOING.TO.GO.NUTS

but by the time I walked down by the lake
my fingers were too frozen
to even think about changing
lenses
so I just used what was already on my camera
my 18-55mm lens

and
most of you know
that with the macro
you get fabulous blurry backgrounds
but
I didn't know I'd get the same thing
so beautifully with another lens
and
that they have a name for it
*
who knew
?
