Shot with Sigma 50mm Art at f/1.4

Also taken with Sigma 50mm Art, but for this I stacked two images - one taken at f/8 to get all of the headstones as sharp as possible and one taken at f/1.4 for the blurred background.

A recently edited image. 35mm lens
Edit: Neglected the rest of the info. Used the prime for the colour rendition primarily as it was a cloudy day with rain coming and going. Wanted to keep as much of it as I could.

I'll include two shots, the first is my entry.

Taken on a business trip to San Francisco (terra cognita as I grew up in the Bay Area), I chose the TS-E for this shot to correct the verticals (and for a sharper image than the 16-35 II I also had with me would provide).

"Palace of Fine Arts"

EOS 1D X, TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II, 13 s, f/8, ISO 100


This one is a recent shot, taken on a nighttime photography workshop that was my first attempt at astrophotography. I bought the Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 to give it a go (actually, I tried two copies, one was very soft on the left of the frame, the second copy was excellent).

"Milky Way"

EOS 1D X, Rokinon 14mm f/2.8, 30 s, f/2.8, ISO 3200

Thanks for looking!

I used a prime, the 100 mm f2.8 L macro, for the minimum focus distance. I had taken several shots with the 70-200, but could not get this shot until I used the 100L.

This shot was taken with the Rokinon 14 mm f/2.8. Selected for the uwa perspective and f2.8 aperture allowing a long enough exposure to capture the milky way.
