Thematic Post your Prime Portraits

Thanks, Sandy! That was literally a luck of the draw, as I had a nice little picture of the bird sitting still and then the next thing I know it was darting off. Thank goodness I had my focus down for this. I can't praise the K50 f/1.2 enough.

I don't do portraits but here is one of my daughter and dog. I edited this in black and white but have recently re-edited it in colour for my mother to hang on the wall.

That's a beauty, Mark - a keeper for sure!
