Afternoon Walk C&C (12 photos)

I took these to keep me occupied while out for a stroll yesterday. I just brought one lens to see how I got on, a Canon 50mm f1.4 (on a Canon 5D II). Apologies for the amount of pics. C&C welcome.

Thanks Rachel! I haven't taken many photos for fun lately. Being bogged down with messing around with websites and emails and other boring administration type stuff.....

Thanks. The more distant dog ones were taken at f1.4. I was surprised when they came out sharp, the AI servo mode worked well there. Just don't ask me about the 5D II autofocus in low light!

Overall great shots but I suppose you want someone to find some faults with them...

Too many for c&c and too many similar ones diminish the strength that they obviously are.

1) Normally this is classed as a bad angle, yet there is something really appealing about this shot, the stillness and complete attention of the Dog perahps.

2) Unusual angle and framing and yeah I think it works.

3) Nice

4) 3 did the job

5) My fav and only the PP on the sky ruins it for me ( I like pictures to be as you see them and the sky here is too unnatural) love the DoF between owner and Dog.

6) too similar to 5, your PP also makes the pictures look somewhat like paintings, maybe a tad too much saturation..

7) Nice pic but again 5 did it.

8) ditto

9) this is where the extra saturation shines and ofc the DoF.

10) DoF wins!

11) Love thsi one, you can almost feel the softness of the cotton and the blur is dreamy.

12) Looks like a bra... :cool:

Thanks AR.

I get what you're saying about the sky in number 5, that's about the best I could manage with it.

And number 12............. not what I was going for but thanks for pointing it out!!
