^ love the colors in that pic!

 

The colors in your pictures are always awesome, they have this soft, pastel type look to them....very cool.

 

^^ This. That's a great shot/setup.

 

i hear that the 85 1.2 is very tough to work, but it looks like you have mastered it, nice job on the capture. love the thin dof.

 

truth is, i am just trying to keep-up with all you guys; i am learning much from the talent here on TS.
thank you for the kind words

 

 

 

Excellent shots! I really like this cat photo -- but the branch in front of his face was really bothering me.

I hope you don't mind, I took a crack at editing that branch out. And while I was at it, I did a couple other small adjustments with focus & lighting.

 

Wow nicely done!

I don't like to erase things on the photos normally I only correct angles and edit the color etc. Also when I do that is because I have time. And I did the editing of the cat after more than one hundred photos from Venice...

You would have noticed that in my photos all is in focus. That's because I use this camera for all the photos.



My reflex is in Spain and I can carry this on my jeans LOL.

 

^^ Ha ha... you work with what you've got, right? I think you did an excellent job on those photos using the Sony.

I really liked your cat photo and work was a little slow today, so I figured, why not?

I'm the same way, I don't like to remove items from my photos too often (only when I think they really distract the shot). I mainly just post process for cropping and small exposure/contrast/color adjustments.
