Finally got the 30mm out for to put it through its paces on something for me (I used it at a recent dance show which I enjoyed, of course, but it's not the same for me as a journey into my own backyard). This isn't completely representative, but I liked it and it showcases the wonderfully shallow DOF of the lens.

This image is intended as my entry into ~Bridgy's contest on her shared blog (See Hear Speak No Evil). You can see more here: [link]

You're very welcome. I still need to get to my challenge. Almost didn't get out to do this this weekend, but I finally found about an hour I could commandeer.

Nicely done, I like the black and white treatment works well here IMO.

I need to get to my something blue challenge too. I'll be able to shoot again for me soon.

:nod: I've still gotta do mine too. I want to do something new, although I have a slightly older shot that I'm tempted to do. It's the first thing I thought of when you said portraiture...

beautifully captured shallow DOF and perfect focus. the flower is very central but balanced a little by the buds top left and bottom right of it... mmmm good look in the contect!
