Here are some shots I took with my new d80 and 50mm 1.8. I mentioned I like dog shots...here's proof. They are my test subjects for absolutely everything. I've not done anything with them, other than a bit of cropping, as you will see. My post production skills are pretty limited! But this way you can see more of what the lens is like. (that is my excuse, anyway!)

1. something in the air


2. best side


3. too much information! (sorry, couldn't resist...)


4. distracted


5. pleeeeeaaase...


6. reflections


seriously, the sun came out just before I shot that...not experienced enough to handle the exposure challenges there! but I like it anway, the detail in the eyes in the full res is so cool!
Full res crop of top eye:

It's all there, the window, the curtain, the cloud, the sun...and still room for detail in the iris.

Anyway, love the lens, nice dof and it is quite sharp! (sometimes, however, I am not, so the qualities of the lens may not shine through just yet LOL!)

I hope this is not too many to post...I promise I won't always post this many!!! But I figured I might as well jump in with both feet? If it is too many say the word and I shall edit. I followed the size guidelines, hope I got it right. (they look a bit big...???)
