This is gorgeous Brain. I love the wonderful cottony effect of the water and great colors. One thing is for sure the 50mm is a very versatile lens.

That's a beautiful shot Brian,(or is it brain?) Well, I'm sure you have a brain to have been able to get this shot.

[Kokopeli]

It's Brian and thanks for the compliment on my shot.

Yeah I do that to my son-in-law all the time too. Typos are my life.

[Kokopeli]

Ok, I must admit.. Back in 4th grade I used to write it as "Brain" just to annoy my teacher..

Mrs. Harvey, I still think you suck! LOL

what settings did you use for the water picture brian?

It's been a little while since we did a 50mm thread. This past Saturday morning I snapped the 50mm f1.8 on the D2h and took a little walk about around town. Here are a few of the images I recorded. I have become so use to the zooms and standing in one spot and adjusting with the zoom that I found it refreshing to have to move up and back the way I did for years to frame my images. Feel free to post some of your resent 50mm shots here.

Hi To Everyone...New Here...Great looking bunch...Larry

Hi, Larry and Welcome!
More people will see this and greet you if you start a new thread in the viewfinder forum.

Ok, Here is my addition...

[Frog]

I like that second one best, Javier.

[jgredline]

Thanks Frog...Between the two white flowers, which one should I delete?

[Frog]

That's a personal taste decision. If they were mine I'd delete the first and keep the second. I think the exposure is a bit better in that one.

Here's a couple of mine. First is an old shot from Philmont boy scout camp, 1989, shot with a Pentax Spotmatic and scanned from the film, which I recently found in my parents' basement. Second is one I shot around Christmas 2007.

Both worthy contribution to this thread. Nice to have you posting hope you show us more of your work. I think it's high time that pull the 50 back out and take another walk, I'm falling behind.
