Hi Boris, I posted the original photo uncropped and unmodified.
It's a little bit better but not by much. The FR-1 is not a rangefinder but a 35mm camera. Very good camera with Aperture priority and manual exposure. I bought it prior to my acquiring Pentax bodies with the intent of buying Zeiss lenses for it. So soon did I find out the cost of such a project and in the meantime was given two K1000 bodies for free hence my intro into the Pentax world. Been obsessing ever since.

Judging from the motion blur of baby's hand and shallow DOF, I would think that lighting was not most favorable... Technicalities aside, I really like what I see. It is good the baby is not staring directly into the camera... May be I would have preferred to see more of baby's hand sacrificing a bit of space on the top... Well, I am too technical today... Hope it wasn't too senseless, my comments... Boris ([EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]) ------------------------------ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
