first one's best. good mood capture...only beef with it is that she seems to be in the dof's fuzzy area. but the moment is captured that's what matters.

Hi TheQuestion:

Thanks for your comment. Focus was on her face. I used 85 mm at F 1.4, so both foreground and background are very fuzzy. Hope still works.

Did you shoot at 1.4 throughout? I think you can shoot at like F4 or even F8 for certain shots, where the background doesn't come into play.

 

[Duffy]

No. it would not be practical if I shoot F1.4 throughout. In (1), I was much further away from the model. F1.4 blurs the surrounding. The other two, I was much closer, so need to step down more to get enough DOF. Perhaps I will check the actual values tonight.

I like #1.

 

[fabianaino]

I prefer #3 .... maybe I like the orange background ... hahaa...

 

[Duffy]

Thanks noelleong & fabianaino.

(2) & (3) were shot at F2. Perhaps can step down further
