More Flowers


        Here are the rest of my edits from this weekends shoot.  I had a lot of fun experimenting with my new canon 50MM f1.8 lens.  It just gives me such a creamy looking background for portraits and still life.  I think I need to move up a stop or two though, as my depth of field in some of these shots is too shallow. For instance on the slightly worn flower below, the stem is blurred and the rear petals are completely out of focus.  I tried to use it to my advantage in the shots that I used that lens, but next time I'll be a little less extreme with it I think.  I think next time I head down there I will follow suit with Ryan and rent a nice lens.  It should be a good time.  BTW, if anyone has any tips for must shoot places in TO and surrounding area please drop me a line, I'd love to try shooting somewhere new.
