My daughter has developed into quite the young artist. She sketches, draws and paints. She’s currently very fascinated by Manga and has been doing a lot of sketches influenced by that style. She’s also learned to ignore dad when he’s got a camera in hand! I managed to shoot several portraits of her as she was sketching away one day, by the winter light of a northwest facing window. This image was made with the Nikon Df, a remarkable camera that I will have more to say about in the next few days. The lens used was the classic Noct-Nikkor 58mm f/1.2 lens. One of my all-time favorite lenses for Nikon F-mount. Shot wide open at f/1.2, focus was on the eyelashes, with the rest of the image showing the wonderful out-of-focus rendering that the Noct is so well known for. RAW conversion using Capture NX 2.4.5.
As always, comments and critique welcome!
