Well, you seem to have had a very good start! Your daughter and your dog seem to have the same hair-do, too....

 

Congratulations!

[Overgaard]

integrale,

 

Looks like the perfect couple. Was your daughter shot with Macro mode?

[integrale]

Thank you for your kind comments - they are much appreciated!

 

Per: Very well spotted! In fact, my wife and three daughters all have – more or less – that hair style :-)

 

Torben: No, the shot was taken with manual focus in A-mode with f1/2.8 and 90mm (eq.). White balance in B&W mode (jpeg).

Integrale - both photos are very good - but especially #2 - a lovely dog portrait.

I use for this shot the Elpro lens for macro. Shot in RAW.

Wow, like the Beatles once put it, it´s getting better all the time!

 

Olch, these are wonderful. The light and atmosphere in the second one is absolutely lovely.

Why? Because of DOF or how?

 

I often wonder why people judge the value or perception of aesthetic values purely in technical terms? True, my reference to a comparison with another system suggests this viewpoint; in fact more often it is some intangible quality mirrored in the thread title.

I don't think Thorsten's questions were intended as a "challenge" to your opinion. I too have been returning to this thread hoping for your answer as I really didn't understand what you were trying to say.

 

Your opinion is valuable and I hope you'll expand on your thoughts. It's worth discussing.

Actually, hardly ever used serial mode, and the camera isn´t with me right now, so I don´t know.

 

Let´s hope Thorsten chimes in; he´s using it all the time AFAIK.

The AF functions on my D2 using the exposure series mode.

John, I certainly didn't take offence at any remarks. Returning to my original posting, it merely reflected the emotional impact the reference picture had on me at the time I first viewed it. Today I might feel differently about it. That is why I use the word 'intangible' because it is often difficult to define one's feelings in purely concrete terms.

 

My original comment referred to the appearance to me of a regal crown viewed from above. Hence my use of the word 'majestic' used purely as a metaphor. Others may not see it that way. In my view there is no right and wrong way in subjective criticism. I hope that helps clarify my comments for you.
