Once again, they will be the opening performers for their school Lip Synch show (tomorrow).

It’s the last year all three will be together at the same school.

How time flies.

There’s something about the composition here that works for me. I can’t articulate why.

“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says “Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”

―Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass.

Sparkle.

Inspiration, Nikon, Nikon D810, Portrait, Q&A, Sigma 35mm f/1.4 ART, Teaching point

There’s something about the way the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 ART renders… photos from it just sparkle, for lack of a better word.

At this point, I think I may even prefer it over the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART, but I haven’t shot enough with either to draw any definite conclusions (though the fact that I might be favouring a 35 over a 50 is saying something, given I’ve traditionally been a 50 shooter).

Either way, both of these Sigma ART lenses are phenomenal. I can’t wait until springtime to get outside in good light and really play with them.
