Mrs Frits, end of day candid

[Frits]

A quick snapshot of Anne just before dinner, after a long busy day at work.
Not a lot of light to play with, so I reached for the 105/1.8.

Bad positioning of her thumb, I did not notice when I shot this...ah well...:frown:

D2x, Nikkor Ai-S 105mm f/1.8 (available light)

I am always amazed at the sharpness of your shot....I'm assuming this is hand held also..
Lovely portrait.

Lovely portrait.

Thank you Arnie.
Yes, hand held, but (manual) focusing was the real challenge here. Very shallow DOF from so close by at 105mm stopped at f/4.

I wish I had steady hands like that! So crisp and sharp, as usual.

Frits, that's really a remarkable image. What a beautiful angle, shooting upward while she gazes above the camera. The thumb is no issue for me at all, even after you call it to my attention. I just love how the colors in the sofa and the background complement the color of her shirt. If you disagree with me about that, send my money back to me because I'm using my brand new 24" monitor calibrated using your Spyder. :biggrin:

Very nice Frits. You do have a steady hand...

Terrific shot, especially considering it is hand-held and manually focused.

Good to see that you managed to open the package (Spyder) :biggrin:
I agree with your observation about complementing colors. I must admit that this was not planned, but I surely noticed it after. Looks nice on my calibrated monitor also :smile:

 

[Rich Gibson]

Excellent shot Frits. I don't think the thumb distracts from the shot. What I particularly like are the colors; everything blends well.

Lovely Shot Frits!
