Shooting with a 400mm is much better than shooting with a 9mm :-)
Depends on the range and whether or not the target can shoot back. 8-D
Lovely photo. I used to be taking some candid portraits with the longer
lenses, - when people are not suspecting and therefore relaxed
Thanks Christian.
And thanks to all who had a look or commented.

It's called Bloom, and it's related to the same phenomenon present at

When referring to purple fringing, (PF) I believe it is not the same

Chromatic Aberration (CA) and as mentioned, using CA removal tools does not

I'm a little confused about "purple fringing". I have always
understood this to be the result of chromatic aberration from
inadequately corrected optics. From what I read here it seems
