Chandelier*

Kingston, Jamaica

When I took this shot I didn't have the challenge in mind.
But after a quick look decided that it would work here..
Taken with the 50mm f/1.8

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi
1/640s f/1.8 at 50.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Hey jano, I took this shot with the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 lens :).
I highly recommend this lens in every photographer's arsenal.
There's also the 50mm f/1.4, which is better constructed and focuses faster I think.

But is more pricy.

I like how the chandelier appears to recede into the darkness, well done mate:-)

Thanks for the feedback all, hope this will be the first of many shots from me.
Only thing that should hold me back is my imagination.

This works for me too Jammy. Hey, I don't recall seeing you post with this camera before, a Christmas present perhaps? Nice work.

This chandelier looks like it could have been found on the Titanic. It really says darkness in my mind.

Great little lens isn't it Jammy! I like the composition of this and that nice shallow DOF. I don't know about it portraying darkness for some, but it does for me as lights banish the darkness, and I really like it! CJ
