Artist at work

My 50mm is very temperamental these days, and will only work with good light. So I got three shots with it before it decided it didn't like the conditions. This was my third. I know... I could have changed lenses. But I liked this one anyway :) Happy One Night Stand everyone.

This is very Liz inspired @4stories
I wonder why your 50mm is doing that? It's a persnickety little lens as it is, but that's weird that it's not working in low light! Anyways, love the lashes and the peaceful concentration. You could have used this for your candid tomorrow:)

@westcoastwallis Thanks Paula. Actually it took a knock and that stuffed it up :( But I refuse to give up on it because it's my nicest lens. I have something else in mind for tomorrow that involves dancing!!

@kiwichick yeah a friend of mine dropped mine once (grrrrr) and it took a few shoots before it stopped being a jerk about focusing, but eventually it sorted itself:)

So cute! I have a love hate relationship with mine! I'm trying to force myself to use it!

Great shot. This is pretty intense coloring. @orangecrush I feel the same way Jerry. I paid a lot for the lens a couple of years ago and can't say I love it but am forcing myself to believe in it the way everyone else does

@glendq Thanks Glenda, she is really into drawing and colouring just now.
@orangecrush @dora Actually this might have been better in colour as it was a girl with a rainbow hairstyle! I really love my 50mm and that's why I'm not giving up on it. It used be be on my camera 90% of the time.
@whiteswan @carolmw @catmac Thank you all, she's a cutie!

For Christmas I purchased the 50 f/1.4. It's backordered - but can't wait to try it out. Hope your lens works out!
