Think my wife will be happy...
Posted By: zeek10d, 09-16-2008, 11:21 PM

During the last dog show my wife felt she need to use a wider lens than the FA 50mm f1.4. This made me pretty happy as she has taken a new step in her photography, so I went order the Sigma 24-60mm at US$200^^ She had always love the bokeh the 50mm gave, I think she'll be please with this Sigma as well^^

Great shots, that first one is fantastic. It's cool that you and your wife share the photography bug. You'll get none of those blank but long suffering looks when you try explaining the need of yet another lens....

Thx^^ I'd learnt to focus on photography than equipments. So when i mentioned I need to get another lens, she's really encouraging about it.^^ Think I'll only get the look when I say I need another flash^^; I have FBA

Thx^^ Yes she is. #3 I think was taken at 24mm it's soft at f2.8, but it gets good at f4.

Thx^^ I believe you can take similar shot, just need to look hard enough. There were like close 100 of this flower around the park, but only this one was able to give me the shot I want. Some grown too inwards, some had messy background, some flowers was slightly torn, etc.

That very first shot is so soft, gentle and poetic. Great capture in the whole series here. Sure she will hang it in the bathroom to add a bit of romance and fragrance to it.
