I currently use a 16-35mm ƒ2.8, 70-200 ƒ2.8, and occasionally a 10mm ƒ2.8 fisheye and a 35mm ƒ1.4. </p> <p>The 16-35 and 70-200 get me through most of my work. I can cover all things wide and (relatively) long. A lot of people use the 24-70 instead, but I prefer the 16-35.</p> <p>10mm fisheye to get all things SUPER wide or to exaggerate something I am trying to emphasize, and 35mm for low-light or when extra depth of field is needed!</p>http://austinyu.com/post/49206247938http://austinyu.com/post/49206247938Mon, 29 Apr 2013 14:49:38 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9089b4bc4327d03dc445770f516a8fd4/tumblr_mln1gcgiyx1qdjvzlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Depletion.</p>http://austinyu.com/post/48588723791http://austinyu.com/post/48588723791Sun, 21 Apr 2013 20:53:00 -0700school tomorrownoplsdoglong haired golden retrieverphotographyartPhotographers on TumblrArtists on TumblrCuteRawVintagewhateverno commentary necessary<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/1e15c677c65b9b2b4e58075f293d97fb/tumblr_mll99eQVyB1qdjvzlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Sinistine. </p> <blockquote> <p>Snapped this a few months ago when I daytripped SF with Brian, Sam (<a href="http://samuel-chang.com/" target="_blank">http://samuel-chang.com/</a>) and Vik.

Drugs have really become a commonplace commodity in our society and have implemented themselves as necessities in our economy. To be honest, it’s pretty frightening; marijuana’s now the number one cash crop in America and cocaine is yielding around $85 <strike>million</strike> billion a year, edging out GDPs of entire countries. Just like God breathed life into Adam, drugs are (quite literally) being breathed into the lives of countless of Americans.

Tumblr<p>Sorry…this question has been in my inbox for like a month and I’m still not quite sure how to answer it. I can’t say that other photographers don’t do this, but I bring a camera with me literally everywhere that I go. Even if it’s like a five minute trip to the bank and back. I really try to find the beauty in un-beautiful things in life because if I can achieve that, I’ve effectively spun the book-cover appeal of something around and presented it with a different perspective. I also like to experiment a lot. And I spend a lot of time and money on experimentation. I’m not sure what else though, at the core of it all, I just love what I do and the passion in me always wants to constantly push the boundaries of my own capabilities and of the definition of photography (although I’m still kinda struggling with finding the definition of photography).</p>http://austinyu.com/post/44121097711http://austinyu.com/post/44121097711Tue, 26 Feb 2013 20:53:00 -0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/43706c6608f7483b642e8c733ed50fcc/tumblr_miv3mckxkW1qdjvzlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Pointless.</p>http://austinyu.com/post/44120221924http://austinyu.com/post/44120221924Tue, 26 Feb 2013 20:39:48 -0800grafgraffitisocalcaliforniacaliucsdsan diegoartphotographyvintagestairspaintgrafftagtagging
