Maureen, looks like you had fun, hope her photographer got that pictures of that quality. It's funny, the bride there looks VERY much like Sarah, my last bride!

Nice job Zoran, really like the sepia background for separation.

Some great captures there mrzoro

Well, her wedding pictures came out beautifully and I also gave her a disk with the 100 or so shots that I took so she got the best of both worlds. Thanks, Dale.

f/2, 1/800th, ISO 5000...The lighting is atrocious in this place!

^Those shot look nice, but the second one would have been KILLER if the shutter speed was really slow.

This is dawning on me, by picking 0.9m - infinity or 1.6m to infinity, will it affect the image quality? If not, then I should just leave it at 0.9m - infinity (for closer focus), makes sense?

The only thing the focus limiter does is change the range where it looks for focus, allowing it to focus more quickly. It has no effect on the image whatsoever.

It doesnt get much better than this. Great scenery, posing, and use of this lens.

Nice Cory, you're getting dangerous aren't you? lol So how do you like the high ISO capabilities of the 5iii with the high speed 135? Seems like the perfect combination for what you do. I'm sure the AF with better point selection is really coming in handy for you as well. You can't use some flash in there? Just a wee bit to bring your ISO down a couple 2 or 3 stops?

Superstar looks great, I'm sure she knows already that she needs to stay off the markers.....just sayin! A 6 fps series would look cool here, stroke...breathe...win​! She's almost ready for the London Olympics! Looks like you might have another in training, way to go Surfer fambly!

Daniel, you're amazing. A benchmark for us all, for sure!
