Wow jc that first shot is sweet. Nice shine and reflections, great color and love the dof there. Lens? Settings?

Heck, I don't know. Probably 1.4, ISO 800, 1/60th, spot meter, and a hail Mary. I am such a crappy photog. I am a guesser and a bless'r .

Think you're right. Put those up because they were morether blue than these (ahem) purple ones. Promise to find some blue stuff tomorrow.

Thanks, I'll check when I get back home. It was the 35 1.4 , XP2. I know I shot it at 1.4 looking at it, I'm almost sure it is ISO800, SS is the question. I like the lens for the most part because you can get close but it is a PITA to manual focus at 1.4. Custom chrome setting (bumped contrast, -2 sharp, if I recall correctly). That bowl is like 20K

XP2, 80mm, F2.8 at 1/30s. OIS works pretty darn good here.
