One Lens, Infinite Possibilities: Working With the Sony SEL50150GM • The Sony FE 50–150mm f/2 GM is one of the most versatile portrait and fashion lenses Sony has produced. Its constant f/2 aperture delivers beautiful subject separation, smooth bokeh, and impressive low-light performance across the entire zoom range. Autofocus is fast, consistent, and reliable even in backlit or fast-paced environments — a major advantage for editorial and commercial work. What stands out most is its balance of reach, speed, and optical refinement, making it ideal for full-length portraits, candid moments, and tight close-ups alike. For photographers seeking a single lens that truly adapts to any scenario, this GM zoom is exceptional.

Postcards from Galle • Perched on the southern tip of Sri Lanka, Galle is a captivating blend of history, culture, and coastal beauty. At its heart lies the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Galle Fort, a centuries-old citadel built by the Portuguese and later fortified by the Dutch, where cobbled streets meet colonial-era architecture. Beyond its storied walls, golden beaches, turquoise waters, and vibrant street life offer a striking contrast to the fort’s old-world charm. The city hums with art galleries, boutique cafés, and spice-scented markets, making it a sensory feast.
