Kids @ 17mm, 25mm etc. – Part 13

The two girls and boy at home have taken turns to experience bouts of illnesses in the last couple of days. It kicked off with Peter getting a mild temperature, then spreading it to Hannah, then Mommy. Adding onto that, Hannah also wrestled with a bit of hives infection, that probably was a result of her skin reacting to a dusty apron she wore over the weekend while helping Ling bake rock cakes. Peter has also settled in nicely with his Nanny, since Ling’s returned to work now for a week. Hannah shared a fun descriptor that his Nanny has whenever Peter starts drooling: “The tap has been turned on!” LOL.

I’ve found myself taking both the E-M5 and E-PL6 micro-4/3s cameras in my messenger bag whenever we’re out of home as a family. One is equipped with the 25mm (usually the E-M5), and the other the 17mm (the E-PL6). Both primes give me the length I like to (or rather have to) work with, and render colors and images that are pretty close if I had to swap bodies around. That’s the wonderful thing about having small interchangeable lens cameras with ‘good enough’ image quality, coupled with wonderful primes. I could never imagine having the same versatility made possible by having two cameras equipped with primes in the form of two Nikon DSLRs!

Peter looks like he's about to be hit by a truck.

Hannah will always giggle for pictures - just got to give her a surprise rib tickle first!

On our bed and just before heading out for breakfast. We've been getting Peter to try standing on his two little feet. He really enjoys the experience, and is a nice counter whenever he's about to break into a bawl.

We should be so worried - Peter is looking at the butter knife!

Two cameras and two primes. No more swapping of lenses needed.
