rented

First of all, I'm praying for all of the people in Japan that the earthquake affected.  And for the safety of people that may be affected by the tsunami.  Please send your prayers.

I rented a 50mm 1.2 lens for the weekend, as it's supposed to warm up and a friend is coming to town for a fun session.  I'm working my butt (ok, fingers and eyes) off to put in extra hours so that I can buy a new lens and this is one on my list.  This is one of my first shots......

I loved it as is, so I only ran Florabella's Champagne Black and White and changed it to a low opacity.

I'm already in love with this lens.....anyone have any input?  I have a Canon EOS 7D and my choices are the 24-70mm 2.8 and 50mm 1.2



and then, she {snapped}

Looks great! Keep saving so you can get one of your own. :)

The SOOC shot is terrific; but so is the edited version. I think it helps to have a handsome model.

These are BEAUTIFUL!! I love them so much. :)

I wish I know of a place that rents out lenses. I was just talking to my SIL who's in Toronto and was telling her that I want to sell my 18-105mm and I want to get a 50mm f/1.4 (I have a 50mm 1.8 now) and she says that she would give me her 50mm 1.4 when she gets her 1.2 Except she has a Canon and mine is a Nikon. :(
