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

I think you're right about the lack of expression. There's a little something there with the raised eyebrow, but in general she looks somewhere between blank and apprehensive. In the future, just try to keep your subjects relaxed, encourage them to keep breathing, and take short periodic breaks to release any tension that builds up when someone stares at a camera for too long.
Technically speaking, the key light is nice, and the exposure is good, but I think a subtle kicker light from camera right would bring out some detail in her hair, and separate her from the background very nicely. The crop is nice at the top, but I'd stand a little further back to include some of her neck/shoulders in the shot. Good work.
Thank you bing, I totally agree with you, I would definitely have used a second light for separation (if I had one) . Sadly so far I have only one flash. Thanks for y he advise on how to help relaxing the model, cheers!
bing has pretty much nailed it.
Bingo, Bing! :-)
