You meet fellow nature lovers as well as fitness types, and obviously plenty of flora and fauna too.<\/p>\n<p>I love this shot because is captures that combination of nature as well as people enjoying nature. I also love the sense of depth in this shot. I took this shot ages ago, but was reluctant to use it for Photo of the Week because it really only works when you view it large &#8211; and I prefer to choose shots that work well even at small sizes. Still &#8211; I really like this shot so I decided to share it regardless.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bartbusschots.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/DSC_7183.JPG.jpg\" alt=\"The Royal Canal\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" width=\"450\" height=\"315\" \/><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bbusschots\/3144074871\/\" target=\"_blank\">on Flickr<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bbusschots\/3144074871\/sizes\/o\/\" target=\"_blank\">Full-Size<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Camera:<\/strong> Nikon D40<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lens:<\/strong> Nikon DX AFS 55-200mm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposure:<\/strong> 1\/320 sec<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focal Length:<\/strong> 200mm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focal Ratio:<\/strong> <em>f<\/em>\/5.6<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISO:<\/strong> 400<\/li>\n<li><strong>Camera Mode:<\/strong> Aperture Priority<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposure Bias:<\/strong> -0.7ev<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lot my macro shots that make it into this series are shot along the Royal Canal, so this week I thought I&#8217;d share a picture of the canal itself!
