1.4

I purchased a new lens the other day that I had been wanting to get for quite some time. It was a 50mm 1.4. For those of you who are photographers, you will understand that this is a very fast lens. For those of you who are not photographers it means I can take pictures in very low light. I took a few photos of Dawson last night right before dark. I have posted a few of them for you to look at.

If your monitor has a brightness setting you might want to turn it down a bit or these pictures will appear a bit overexposed.

I generally turn my monitors to near their lowest setting.




Dawson is getting into everything now. He has learned to climb very well and doesn't stay still very long.



I had to snap these very quickly because he was up and running about the time I was able to focus.





The depth of field on a 1.4 lens is shallow which makes the background all buttery.







I told Dawson to run at me as fast as he could go. It took about 10 shots to get one in focus.



This was the last one of the day. ISO 3200 1.4. It was getting so dark when I took this picture that my landscape lights had turned themselves on.
