The first one's cool, but the last two are way too awesome given you managed with Natural light :)

Wow. Wow. And oh my god. Good stuff. You really suck all the detail out with those lenses.

Outstanding !
What frustrates me the most is that I own every lens you mentioned in the captions,
but never got results that are as goodlooking as yours.
Clearly a case of good glass in good hands.
I must do something wrong...:wink:


The natural light shot is amazing.

Thank you very much guys for your kind words and support :)

With my little experience I can say that the right light is fundamental. The light can make my photos have a nice result or destroy them. I always use a black hood in front of the lens and I also always use a diffuser from paper or plastic material even in a natural light. Also I try that the light never falls directly to the lens and the light (in the studio) falls to the object with angle.

Sorry for my English

Beautiful examples - period, really, but especially as you're using pretty humble lenses.
There must be a story behind being able to get 16 shots of #2?
:shock:

Thank you very much for your comment Chris :D
There is not something special behind the photo.The only remarkable thing maybe is that it was taken with continuous shooting and some moved frames were removed.Also I used a purple food box for background.
