I thought I'd give you a break from (too much?) travel photography, and post some colorful shots from last November's Lucca Comics, a huge and colorful fair about all things comics, games, roleplaying, cosplaying, collectibles etc.

Highly detailed figurines make for nice photographic subjects

The figurines are quite interesting, and I like the motion blur of the background on several shots. Could you say what lens was used? Looks like the EXIF metadata has been stripped from your photo files.

Thanks for stopping by

I always do that... metadata are often too detailed for my taste... especially when I shoot with my smartphone and forget geotagging on...

2. Sigma 10-20 at 10mm 1/6 f/5.6
3. Sigma 10-20 at 14mm 1/10 f/5.6
4. Sigma 10-20 at 20mm 1/30 f/6.7
5. Sigma 10-20 at 10mm 1/500 f/4, prefocused, from the hip
6. Sigma 10-20 at 10mm 1/15 f/4.5
7. Sigma 10-20 at 20mm 1/350 f/4.5 *

* The stands' illumination varied quite considerably, and when I took this one I still had ISO 800 set. Could have gone down a bit.
