Michael, I can say this was one of my favorite lenses too during my old 35mm days. That 1.4 was an excellent speed lens at that time. I like your natural outdoor setting to “setup or studio” photograph this also…:sunglasses:
Only thought for change would be to crop from the top down about half way in the open space to about a square crop overall to eliminate the very bright area at the top. I think it would minimize our eyes wandering a bit up there…just a thought…:+1:

thanks Paul, I agree, I have gotten into what I think is a bad habit of trying to maintain a traditional aspect instead of just going with what looks best.

I really like the soft look this lens gives and the quality feel of it
