Very nicely done, Peter! The background is awesome and the subject just pops! I don't think the 85/1.8 can do this.

Thanks for the comment.

The photo was taken during a rehearsal dinner before the wedding day, grandma read a lovely poem for the new couple, great moment and very touching, she was 90+ years old that time...

We all thought she would pass the poem to the couple after she finished the reading, but she held it for a moment and pass it to them, acted like a young kid.

Cheers


This image has Cartier-Bresson written all over it. One of the most touching images I've seen on this site for some time.

Thank you for the comment...

At that moment, her son, a Dr. just had a smile, and her granddaughter almost cried...

Due to the poor lighting, w/o flash that's all I could do.....

haha....I do use 85/1.2L in studio shoot a lot @ f/9 or so, for location strobed shoot, I usually use it @ f/4 on FF bodies..

For this shot, I just told the girl, "RIDE IT ON, BASBY, DO IT !" and I did feel the moment, that's the shot, lol......

And I agree, she's HOT !

Another shot of her f/1.2L @ f/4 on 1Ds Mark II, sorry. the image seems a little larger...

Me too. In fact, I rarely shoot at f1.2 although many folks here seem to think that the 85L is really only suited for f1.2 .... otherwise the 85/1.8 can do the job. My idea of thin DOF is shooting at f2 and most of the time in the studio I would shoot at f8. So it's nice to see you shoot at f9!

The 85L is like a Porsche. You don't need to shoot at f1.2 or drive at high speed to attract the prettiest girls!

Bobby,

The custom Harley and cat shots are great, the lighting on the custom Harley is not easy for sure...
and I like the pink color of the cat's nose ...

Bobby, Brian (aka BMStudios) asked me to critique some of your images on his behalf.
I hope you don't mind.

(Kidding, just kidding )

Either way, the kitty is lovely, posed beautifully, framed very well and focus has been established securely on her eyes.

Only a couple of nits.......on my trusty monitor the white hair on the kitty seems overexposed and colours appear oversaturated and slightly shifted in hue, judging by the pinks. Then again, I am half colour blind, so you shouldn't listen to me anyways.

There you go, Lide....you have shown us here very well that camera high ISO capabilty, monstrous Mp, DR, super lens sharpness and speed.........all that which fills a page upon page on this forum pales in importance when compared to a "simple" yet uncommon skill of capturing and framing right scenes and right moments.
