Nice shot. More interesting than 95% of the usual lens test shots I've seen.

Out of curiosity, where did you get that illuminated keyboard. Looks handy.

YAAAAY, it's not a landscape shot!

People pix next?
If you're in Melbourne and wants to test it, I can invite you to a short film shoot I'm DoP on this weekend

Thanks rawr pleased you like my shot, thought with the low light conditions I had that would be the perfect shot to use the lens wide open.

As to the keyboard I'm using, its from My Alienware Laptop, its made for gaming but its photo editing companion on the go
