Please view photos at the "ORIGINAL" size, as compression seems to have affected the shot at the smaller sizes.
These are samples I got as I was testing my new Canon 50mm 1.8 at its wider apertures. The range of apertures is from f1.8 to f2.8. The only editing consisted of cropping and resizing (some were rotated 90 degrees for proper viewing)....no other editing was done. Photos were taken around 4:30pm as the sun was starting to sit low in the sky. I am pleased with the most of the shots but I have gotten others that were rather out of focus. I haven't quite figured out why they were out of focus...more than likely operator error :O).
