One thing I appreciate about you posting these photos is that they're
definitely pushing me away from taking Larry's advice to bring the
50/1.4 on my trip.  (I'm already bringing the 16-50/2.8 and 35/2.8
macro, and one of my goals is to minimize kit size.  I'm not expecting
to take many low-light photos, and your photos are persuasive that 2.8
should handle the situations I might run into.)
Well, I'm glad I was able to at least provide some guidance. I stick close f/2.8 because that's what I was told was the sweet spot for the 50/1.4 -- so, I wouldn't rule out taking it for that fact alone. Seems to me you could get some great shots that way.
