Well I've caught up to about half way through today
If I'm to mark myself (1/3 of the way through), I'm going to give myself a meh mark, clip around the ear, you are a disappointment son! type lecture. Subject wise I've been boring, the strawberries were saved by the lens itself, I crippled the lens on the flower shots by trying it out with the TC and they will be deleted at the end of the month. Aqua the tap was OK, probably helped by the PP. Riveted (the joystick trigger is fine, bread and butter to the 25, as was Lens (gear porn shot of the DFA*70-200). Complete disasters / embarrassments were the Perspective (50 Macro + DFA50) and Iconic (keyboard reflection on front element of SuperTak 50), both are woeful. Softly softly (dandelion pic in muted colours) and Dormant show an improvement, both coming in at above average I think if handled a bit boringly. You'll all be happy to know that I've packed away the SuperTak, not to be seen again for the month
but I liked and still like the concept of Symbiotic from earlier today and it served its purpose perfectly lined up against the DFA* prompting a funny & enjoyable exchange with Eric. That leaves Switches, the keyboard image, which I think Sara is particularly bored off
. I'm going to defend that one, OK its a keyboard, boring but it's a cracker of a test for any lens. And the way I took it, handheld, 1/30s, ISO3200, f/2.8 resulted in a not too shabby return. So I'm scoring myself out of 130 = 4+6+5+6+2+4+1+6+6+7+1+4+5 for a total of 58 so lots of room for improvement. Fair summary?
