^^^ love it, you are a very busy person to say the least.

do you do most of your edits in lightroom in regards to the color toning?

id love to know or compare notes on how you achieve your greens and skin tones be how i do them. in lightroom I use the manual adjustment HSL and adjust the greens specifically for hue, saturation and lower light intensity and then do the same for skin tones but push the oranges and reds an desaturate them a bit. are you using split toning?

Not my usual processing but felt like tinkering today and ended up with these B+W I kind of liked.

Busy, indeed... 55+ hour FT employee + weddings and engagements is a crazy life, let me tell you. Especially being a home owner too...

All coloring and adjustments done in Lightroom! I am anal about White balance for skin tones so I make sure my white balance and exposure is good...

Not to hijack the thread, PM incoming!

Was thinking about buying a Sony A7Rii until I saw this thread...Is it worth it to stick to Nikon for just 1 lens?

Love how this lens turns a snapshot into something special. Still my favourite lens I have ever owned.


Oi! I am a bit cross with you for making that comment about snapshots.
That sums up exactly what I like about characterful lenses (135 DC, 105E, 50 1.2), I don't have a 58 and I've been telling myself over and over I don't need it. Then I come here see all the wonderful shots, and someone says it hits the nail on the head of what I am looking for. :-P

After I get my living situation sorted, I think I'll be forced to add this to the camera bag.
