Mythological egiptian god also called the Golden Jackal. I just tried to do a sharp portrait. I used two sources of light: Natural from the right and Led (2.700 K) from the left and above.

Well, it looks as though you succeeded in your quest. Well done, very sharp except for the idol's left ear. It is farthest from the lens, so it is to be expected, a little soft but still very good. Overall, it is a very nicely done photograph with a very interesting subject.

Thanks,

Tony

Your use of light sources worked out extremely well and you got the detail you strived for.

Yes, you are right, although I step all the way down to f.22 seeking sharpness, that spot is still weak, shallow DOF at the shortest focal distance of that lens (1.2 m). I appreciate your commenting Tonytee.
