Who thinks the nifty 50 is just fine for street photography on a 1.6 crop body?

This is a beautiful shot.

Thanks, what's most interesting is that no editing has been done, it's straight from the camera.

@ride5000: Your patriotic picture is excellent :)


Let's keep it simple, I love primes.

It was "fine" for me when shooting street photography, but I found myself wanting to go wider more often than not.

Seeing this thread i went out and bought the nifty fifty.
Played with the lovely bokeh a little but needs careful focusing.
