Nice pictures!

Did you use the live view screen or the viewfinder to manually focus? If the live view, how are the focusing aids?
I used the viewfinder. I haven't yet mastered using live view. It seems a little slow and cumbersome to me.

Helping Oot

A young lady who has just signed up with a model agency and working together with her today (just adding to help her pad up the portfolio). I have no doubts that she is destined for great things.

Kudos, KD! I don't know if luck had much to do with it, though.

My Nativity Scene

K1/A*135mm (...damn! I always forget to change the focal length when I switch lens!).

Not the best composition...live and learn.
