    Took her out on a date to the local village pond to see the ducks!
    Wide open aperture or close to it!Low light conditions but that is when the reflections look best!

    No need Paul. You'll either join or surpass me in time. That new lens of yours is doing the job you wanted right now. This is a gift from a friend and I only hope to honor that gift by learning to use it properly. Here is Ma and her little companion! They will be at my house for my lifetime anyway! With this and my Kit lens at 18-55 the whole range is covered from wide angle to extreme zoom. Oh yeah...This was taken with a 50mm f/2 and no flash! LOL

    That third duck is really confused, isn't it? Nice pictures - how do you like the lens?

    It is about as long as I need Daniel. A 800mm prime would be nice to say I have but really what use would I have for it.. LOL I like your photos...Don't do too much changing as you do so well with the ones you have!
