Congrats on the new lens! You're going to love it! Super sharpness, nice eye contact and a pretty BG. I like that the bill doesn't merge with the feathers.

Congrats on the fine new glass. Agree with Doug on the techs. A bit more DOF to get more of the breast in focus would have been nice.
Cheers

Hi Frank, congrats on your new lens, and may it produce lots of keepers. Good lookback pose, tack sharp, and I like the various colours on the head. Another vote for wishing for more DOF.

Even unsharpened version looks amazing Frank...Enjoy the new lens. Looking forward to more.

To say I am envious is an understatement! Congrats on this lens, Frank. Can't wait to see what you do with it. Great sharpness straight out of the camera.
