So, at last, there is a guy able to intimidate Elsa !! Never thought that would happen :D

I assume he was eligible according to your list of requirements, though.

I love these images ... but Sten Rasmussen's face shot stands out as truly exceptional.

+3!  Agree with Elsa and Gary - Sten's jam gets exceptional. 


Enjoyed all the other images too.  Gary, loved your set - some fine images there.


Bruno, love your wedding image.  Very creative!


cheers,

Bruno, love your wedding image.  Very creative!


Thanks Raaj but this is pure luck as the flash did not fire . My only creativity here was to not delete it before checking :)

Thanks Jakov. As the "king of blur" I am not very surprised that you like blurry pictures. I do find your first picture in this thread very pleasing. Akira's contribution also stands out, as well as others.

I'll add another with the 50mm f/1.2 fully open:

WOW. If I see this one I am motivated to get back to my old addiction. From a 2005 exhibition of mine:

You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

At the time I thought it was an interesting idea to take this image focussed at the minimum distance.
