Are you saying you love the sharpness b/c its what you've heard said around here? The only reason I say this is b/c the focus seems to be rather soft.

I do like the pose/position of #1, but its a bit cool toned. Maybe a reshoot or tweak in pp.

#2 and #4 are the stronger ones. The rest have some WB and exposure issue.

Yeah in #1 we were shooting opposite of the sun.

Um, I say sharpness because they're sharper than what I'm used to. But thanks for raining on my parade. :lmao:

I had to up the exposure of these in PP, (that's basically all I did other than minor sharpening/contrast) do you think they're over exposed?

I believe in comparison to your previous posts these are sharper but not as sharp as can be, #3 and 5 are somewhat soft to me, in #3 the playground equipment seems focused but not her. But a nice lens, got mine a month agao. Love it.:thumbup:

You need to make the WB warmer. Her skin looks blue.

I got the same lens last week and LOVE it for portraits and other close up stuff. These new pics you got up are pretty good, they look nice.

Will do some pp on number one. Thanks for the feedback guys. I really think I lose some sharpness when using photbucket. They look a little sharper on my comp. Not saying I'm spot on. Don't get me wrong.
