2 things - didn't know you could buy eyes for cakes. Very trippy

Second, and more serious, what lens did you use & what f stop - that's seriously shallow DOF

Very shallow DOF but what a subject - some kids would be scared of this - I mean the older ones :lol:

The eyes are painted onto some gell stuff, not a very technical term.

The wife is a secondary teacher- teaches cartering so she would no more.

I used the 24-120VR, I was going to give the new sb-800 arun, but being the daughters birthday the wife needed some AA's for a present.It wasnt until I got it out mounted it and couldnt turn it on that I found out grrrr....

But I missed the focus point , Oh well

f5.6
78mm
1/200
Apature Mode

One note; the school kids loved the cakes..

MATT,
How this can be? The wife shouldn't allow to touch your toys/ gears :lol:

I hope you already got the $$$ back.

They were only through away batts, so now she promised to let me buy a NimHset and recharger on the weekend

Its all give and take.

Another week should have the cash back .all's sweet.

Cheers
