Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5.
"Reaching" - 'Sambucus nigra', as my wife calls it, or Black Lace Elderberry for the rest of us.

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?

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.

Outside the tourist area photos.
These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

This is an awesome shot. I love the lighting and the background. If anything I would say maybe a rim light of sorts to pull her off the dark background a little bit but it's not really needed at all. Maybe fix some flyaway hairs? all minimal and me just nit picking. Better than I have been able to do myself haha. I did want to see what it would look like with a tighter crop so I hope you don't mind that I tried this. keep it up. Love it!
I love the lighting and her expression. I too would like to see a hair light of some kind because she is falling into that dark background.
About the original cropping! To me, she is stepping out of the shadows, in to my light.
Very nice portrait though with the totally black background I would crop it more as it does not add to the scenery.
