Derrel, WOW, that's super sharp.

Yeah, the Canon 50 1.8 Mk-II at f/10 is pretty close to its optimal f/stop on the 20D's 8.2 MP sensor. The electronic flash also provides a really brief "shake-proof" exposure time as well.

Here is another shot, straight conversion right from the RAW file, of a Nikon D2x file using a 50mm 1.8 AF (pre-D, probably a 1990 model) lens, at f/8, 1/250, also at ISO 100.

Even though this breaks so many technical rules of composition, I love​ this picture.

I need to go take some pics with the 50mm 1.8 I just got.

P.S. I like Dao's pic a lot!

I'll go back to some of my older stuff

Fun idea!!!! I'll contribute!

These are all handheld, Nikon D90 with Nikkor 50mm f/1.4, taken indoors with natural lighting. I can't remember the ISO or shutter speed. These are photos of a pure redwood guitar that my friend Paul made for me and my three-legged cat, who was inspecting the guitar. You can read about the guitar - and what my cat thought of it - here Eleven Shadows Travels: Redwood Guitar From Paulskirocks
