Mandrake
Bold colors and strong shadows make
this a great image.
Really impressed with the subdued tones
of the window frame too.
In my opinion you nailed the settings on
this one.

Thank you Oksana, Dale and John.
This is one of my favorite shots.
I’ve never printed a photo. This may be the first.

I’ve had this thing for half a century.
Never used it, except to admire it’s form and construction.
It has sat, waiting on a few kitchen counters for the right cook.

Mandrake
Would make a great print!!!
The colors are almost glowing and
if the print was done correctly I’m sure
you would be happy to display it in a
prominent location of your home.
One word though – I’ve had some prints
made that turned out terribly and even after
manipulation and reprinting they were barely
adequate compared to the original.
Get a guarantee of satisfaction before you hand
them your cash.
Dale.

I like the amazing focus on the subject and the composition is perfect!
I’m wondering of getting one of 35mm 1.8G lens but then I also saw a lot of reviews on 50mm 1.8G ….I am really confused about which one to buy ?
Do enlighten me on this confusion!!Frown

Enlightenment: I had the same choice.

Sam
35mm 1.8 or 50mm 1.8?
Tough choice but the edge seems to belong to the 35mm
from those reviewing the two. I got my 35mm when I bought
my camera almost 3 years ago and have loved it (except for the
6 damned weeks it was being fixed by Nikon). Either lens would
be great and it is a very personal decision. Watch a few Youtube
videos comparing the lenses – that may help in your decision.
Good luck!!!
