Here are some shots I took today at Balboa Park. All were shot with my new 85mm f/1.8, at ISO 100. I haven't taken note of the shutter speeds:

This was the coolest dog in the park. It was as if he was completely aware that some guy with a new lens was testing it out, and Fido felt obliged to assist. He just stayed there:

I can't overstate how happy I am with this lens. Please, comments and criticism are welcome and encouraged. Thanks!

Great pics, Steve.
I laughed at the two dogs. It's almost looks like you could hear the dog on the right say "hmm... not sure about this, but let's see what happens...." and the last picture is great, of course. He's saying "yeah, baby, I look good and you know it!!!!" LOL!

Hehehehe... yeah, that black dog was like an amphetamine with feet. It would be running at full throttle and then stop on a dime to smell something. And that Retriever, boy, what a great animal that was.

Thanks for the comments!
