it (the 60mm) will be awesome for portraits @RON. I now have a bunch of portrait lenses: Nikon 35mm 1.8, the Nikon 50mm 1.8 and the Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro. I am hoping to add the Sigma 50-150 f2.8 to my arsenal next week and would even use that for the compression and soft creamy smooth bokeh I hope it will provide.
I have used my 70-300 for portraits too and that has beautiful bokeh.
Today's shoot is with my daughter and her husband so should be fun.

Nice shots.
Thanks mate
The idea behind taking this shot was to include it in my collection of background shots for use later on in PS. I don't do much by way of changing photos but have seen some good results where the background has been appropriately changed.
Be a shame not to be able to use it.

In my quest for "something" inspirational I spoke to an artist (the painting variety) today and she told me a couple of tales relating to her journey.
One of these anectodes was where an art teacher once made her cut up one of her paintings into several pieces and then have her put it together again, much like a jigsaw. The catch was to not assemble it back to the original painting but to come up with something different.
What the heck - may as well give it a go. Didn't do anything for my inspiration but it was fun.

I am glad that Van Gogh did not have that art teacher.
Very nice image!

You're really getting the hang of this. Keep it up!
