I just couldn't get on board with working distance of the 90mm f/2 I had, especially on a crop sensor. The 50mm is certainly more in my wheelhouse. I had an 85mm f/1.8 (on my 35mm film camera) that I really liked. For me it was perfect for portraits. Great pics, Michael! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Those are turkey vultures. They will sit around if there are no rising thermals to glide on, usually seen like that on taller structures in the morning and dusk. I think it is the only or one of the few birds to have a sense of smell, to help find the dead stuff to eat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell her Happy Birthday please, and stop lying about her age it's OK for her to be with an older guy she don't have to add numbers. She should have put Orange on the shirt instead of Pink. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicroMara Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Made this pic in the hospital two weeks ago . It shows Barbara of Nicomedia (Barbara, "the stranger") was a Christian virgin, martyr of the 3rd century. According to tradition, she was beheaded by her father because she refused to give up her Christian faith and virgin devotion to God. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT I know what Victoria's Secret is, she's a genius.................she sells 4 oz of material less than a square foot, and gets $40+ for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
