Lions And Wizards!

[TheNevadanStig]

First real attempt to give the little 50MM Sparky so graciously donated a go. It's my first fast lens, so I wanted to use it accordingly. No flash, only indirect evening sun coming through a single window. I was at 2.8 for all shots. ISO was at 800 which is WAY higher than most anything I do but I don't think noise was much of an issue. It was a definite challenge using an all manual lens off-hand with cats that don't want to stay still at all.

The wizard REALLY wasn't pleased with his outfit, and I didn't get many usable images out of that one

The lion was a bit more cooperative:

They both did better with a complete wardrobe removal:

If I were you, I'd check my shoes realllllllllllly carefully for the next year or two!

Nice shots! If there was even any noise, I wouldn't have noticed it. I love the clearness of its eyes and the last shot is amazing the way you captured it's glare at possibly a moving object in the foreground. Thanks for sharing!
