It's Another Birthday!





Today I had another opportunity to shoot the Frame family. They have been one of my more consistent costumers and I really do appreciate there business. It was Hunter's second birthday and boy has he grown up. It's funny how this job really reminds us of time and daily changes. The birthday party also gave me a chance to get the "Girls" together. This seems to be turning into a tradition for them. With natural lighting flooding in from the open glass walls this one shot looks like a glamour shot from a beauty dish and high speed strobes would produce. Not bad from a Panasonic GH-2 and available light! Well, once again I had a great time. Thank you James and Amie.

Panasonic Leica Summilux 25mm f1.4

Yesterday my order for the Leica Summilux 25mm f1.4 arrived. Few things I noticed after briefly playing with it on my GH2. It is extremely sharp, and it focuses very fast regardless of available light! Wow what a wonderful addition to the m43's system. This will definitely be my "normal" go to lens.




Here is an example just how sharp this little lens is. Shot nearly wide open at f1.6. Not sure why I didn't shoot wide open. Maybe it was my little faith from lenses of my past.
