Re: peso Fenny
Larry, I like it. Using the A200/2.8 for portraits with flash is unusual. It looks like you have the details mastered! I especially like how the guy is so sharp. Regards, Bob S.

If everybody did it, then there would be no need for me to. :-) One of the things that I've been playing with is tight cropping. It seems that if I just crop off a little bit of someone's toe or a bit of their shoulder it looks like I've made a mistake. But if I come in extremely tight so that I just have the bare minimum of what absolutely has to be there, then I also get rid of almost every distracting bit of cruft that doesn't have to be there, and the pictures turn out a lot better. Lighting the subject from the side also helps, because they're lit, and all the extraneous crap on the bar, or restaurant walls, is just lost in the dark. It looks like you have the details mastered! Thanks, though I wouldn't go that far. I think I've got a start on some interesting concepts to play with, and hope that I have many opportunities for improvement over this. I especially like how the guy is so sharp. It is a wonderful lens. Especially when the flash lets me stop it down a bit. Also, thanks to Christine.

I was hoping that the popup flash would provide a bit of fill, but I guess that it didn't have the oomph. I wish that I had a ring flash to use to play with fill on shots like these. Just enough to illuminate the subject but not enough to illuminate the background. Though that would require being fairly close to get several stops difference using inverse square.
