Portraits

Since I have gotten my D50 I have found more and more that I absolutely can't stand flash photography. "So what" you say. I have also found that the majority of my photography is indoor photography/lowlight photography which does not bode well for me as a flash-hater. The solution is a faster lens that is capable of a lower F-stop (f 1.8). For those of you who don't know, this simply means the iris in the lens that lets light pass through is much larger and therefore lets in more light. The result is a photograph that looks soft and natural. This works well in lots of situations. The lens really excells with portrait photograhpy as well. The following are some shots of Dani and Cooper that are essentially straight off the camera with very little post-processing work.
