Taken today in our garden. I'm particularly happy with the focus on this rose.
Very nice! I like all the detail on the petals. Just the right amount of DOF, too.
I used to have one of the f:1.7 lenses, but gave it to a friend of mine's grandson, who was getting into photography. I do have a f:1.4, though.... but seldom use it, so I really don't pine over the fact that I gave the other 50mm away. It seems as if I ever leave the house, I grab a zoom of some flavor or other... usually my Tamron 28-200mm. I shouldn't limit myself to the same old focal length lens continually. Maybe I need to set aside one day a week as a "Different Focal Length Day."
