A quick portrait of my Sister-in-Law
Shot this the other day using the new Tamron 85mm 1.8 SP. I have been very happy with this lens. Here is a shot I took with it the other day. I welcome feedback/criticism/comments. Thanks!

The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

This a very nice shot! I love the bokeh and the ray of light. Was the latter done in post? The halo of light around her face is cool too, so I don't mind the clipping of the highlights in that case. I would have been curious to see what the image would have looked like with her taking more space in the frame, maybe in a way that respect the rule of third. I would also suggest removing the flyaways a little bit more, specially those two beside her neck. Very good job overall! Keep on shooting, Ken! :)
Agreed. Thanks for the advise. The rays are straight from the lens. I was using the Tamron 85mm 1.8 SP. it's a pretty wonderful lens.
