What's the story behind these shots?? Very cool, My kids would love to see this place!

It's a private Garden set in the New Forest Southern UK that is run as a charitable trust to help educate adults with learning disabilities. They're also gold medal winners at the Chelsea flower show, a serious achievement and as high an award as it gets in the UK, and we know our onions when it comes to fancy gardens! They've placed little fairy doors around the estate for kids to find, some are really well hidden, and I tell you, the kids are captivated by them, the place is crawling with kids, all quiet as anything as they're just fascinated trying to find all the doors! Here's a link with a few more pics, they've got some stunning thatched buildings too....

Wow! That is super cool!! My kidos would LOVE to visit. Thanks for the pics and explanation.

my lens is on the way!!!

All these were on the corner focus points of a 5DmkII on servo. It kept up pretty well for a sprinting toddler in the fog.

A couple at f1.4

Such a cool lens!

Have the lens for almost two weeks, I like it.

I love this lens......but, focussing does not seem to respond very well to the outermost focus points on my 7D wide open. If I center focus and recompose. Bingo beautifully sharp images. Anybody else experience this issue on a crop body?

Can't wait until I go full frame.

I need to work on cleaning up my PP a bit.

Quick test with this lens! It's pretty awesome must say. For some reason it is more difficult to get the focus right with this lens than it was with my previous 85mm f/1.2

Nice Shots! but why you exchanged a 85 1.2 for a sigma 50 1.4? 85 1.2 is just one of the best lenses from canon. i never would have sold it. i only added the sigma.
