My daughter Olivia, last summer.
I love this 85 lens. Like, really love it. This is when I first got it and was still experimenting. I feel like the longer I've had it, the better I've gotten with it, but it's pretty awesome straight out of the box too. <3
That's my favorite prime lens!!
She is so beautiful!
I love the 50mm, don't have an 85mm but I think they are probably some what similar.
Love the shot! Would love to see what you do with the lense now that you've gotten to know it better!
@Pietra: I have the 50 too. They are very similar, it's true! I love them both. <3
Olivia is beautiful and pretty and cute but what I really like about your recent pictures of her is that her expressions exude confidence.
I've been considering an 85 as well. I go back and forth on a regular basis as to what I'm adding to my arsenal next. Lovely shot!
@FireMom: Love the 85. What do you have already?
She's so cute!
I love love love my 1.4 50mm lens but have been thinking about getting a 85 too.
@Kristen: The worst thing is that I found out there is a 50 1.2. Why would I need an extra .2 in aperture when the 1.4 is PLENTY? I swear lens collecting is a disease.
I love the 85. But I love the 35/2 wide angle as well. It's a GREAT lens and more different from the 50 than the 85 is, if that makes sense.
She looks so much like you. That little smirk is adorable. She kinda looks like the crocodile hunters daughter Bindi. =)
the 85mm f/1.8 is A TON faster than the 50mm f/1.8. I'm actually about to offload that. I just can't get it to work as fast as I'd like. The 85mm, so yummy.
The 1.8 is the nifty 50, and I've heard it's slower. (But it's great for the price!!!) I have the 50 1.4 and it's awesome. AWESOME. But then I found out there's a 1.2. I did not need to know that.
She is beautiful!!!! I also love love love the name Olivia. I have 4 chickens at home…and if my son would've been a girl…..we would've named her Olivia. I just love that name!!!!!!
