The Face

Day 3 of the fixed lens saga. To get this shot, I had to hold the camera high
above my head, aim it at the statue, and half press the shutter until I heard
the focus beep. Full crop; just a little contrast adjustment and some USM.

I love the expression on her face.

Great texture and DOF!!

Extraordinary that you could take this without seeing it in the VF.
I've done similar with the mono and it turns out like dirt. Maybe it's time to play a bit more.

Nice statue.

Great shot Gary! Her expression is so sweet indeed. Nice eye.

You need to get a monopod! Next time you're arms might not be long enough.
