Quick 5 minute session after a night out, only got 1 picture worth working with. Had a real hard time with the nifty fifty hunting in the low light, couldn't get the eyes in focus.

it looks under exposed and the lighting is flat. if you're using your nifty fifty at home, try using a lamp or a flash if you got one.

next time try "one shot" focus or use MF, also 1/25 s is a bit slow for 50mm lens if its handheld
