Nikon 200 f2 at Bindii's Brisbane Model Shoot

Not long home after an overnight stay in Brisbane following the Model shoot at Riverside Centre.

I took my 200 f2 which I've had for 4 months but haven't had a chance to use.

Whilst it was a bit awkward trying to shoot with a different focal length to everyone else. (e.g. being in the distance a bit I probably got less eye contact and interaction from the models )

Nonetheless I came home with a nice haul of images had thoroughly enjoyed the outing.

Only had a chance to process one so far.

Here it is - comments welcome

lol musta been that lens!

nice shot, definitely does the lens justice, well balanced and with a tickle of colour (green) makes for a very nice head/shoulds portrait...

No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.
