This is a fantastic portrait, although I am a little bit bothered by the shadow on her left nostril (the right side as you look at the image).

I had one of these lenses for about a month and ended up selling it because I had so much difficulty getting anything remotely sharp wide open. I had very high hopes for it but was quite disappointed. I hope your experience is better.

Yes, the jury's still out. It's OK with me if my portraits aren't tack-sharp … I think. I need to shoot more with the lens before deciding whether or not the look is a look I like.
