Onzedge- I love my 50mm f1.8! It is a blast to shoot at dusk. I will post a couple of shots after I get home from dinner.

Nick -- the last time I saw a squirrel that close up it had crosshairs on it.

Nick- love the hawk shots. We had a couple in my neighborhood and never did get a shot of them. Had some great "branch" and "leaves" shots though.

onzedge- niiiiice purchase! You are going to have fun with that .

Here is a shot with a 50mm f1.8 hand held at around 9:30 at night... dont' know what settings because I can't find the original image! No edits other than a crop.

Nice shot, beach. Great, just great. Another lens I am now going to convince myself I need.

Thanks! Good thing is that you can pick one of those up for almost nothing. I think I payed just over $100 for it. It's plastic but good glass. Lotta fun for your buck with that one. The f1.4 is more than twice the price.

Love those shots!

Canon 50D or Nikon D50? Both are great bodies!

I still have my D50! Love it. Some of my favorites shots I have ever taken were with that camera. Here is a shot from my 50 with a $139 Sigma lens...
