Vintage Lens
Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5. NOTE: With this lens the minimum focusing distance is 18" at which point you have 1/4" depth of field.

Austin, Texas Blue Hour
Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.
Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!

Two from Tenerife
My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.

Any interest in this group?
Hi all, I was looking for such a group but see that although there are many members there hasn’t been a single post. Is there interest out there in getting this group going?

Vintage Lenses
I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

great job. I really like the dark one.
Hey Dustin,
I really like what you have got going right now. I like your use of the rule of thirds and where you have positioned your subject in the frame and her expression! I would make a couple small tweaks though.
-Have you tried cropping in just a little bit more (reducing the amount of headroom and torso in the shot)? In my experience I think it makes the subject feel more personable.
-I think the scarf might be giving her a little more bulkiness and taking away from her form.
-Try to keep your backgrounds a solid colour as to not take away from your subject. I found my eye was wandering to the background in your first shot! Maybe a medium grey would have really made her stand out as she is wearing white!
-Remember that your lighting can really impact how the shadows fall on the face! Really notice how around her eyes and her dimples that you see the wrinkles. You could make them less noticeable by shifting the lighting to be more dead on to the subject (rather than off to your left)!
