Very nice. #4 inparticular looks great. May just be my screen, but the white balance looks a bit off on #3 (a bit yellow), but great pic none the less. I have the Nikon version of the 50mm 1.8 and I love it. Great for this style of photographs.

Thanks for the feedback. I had a lot of trouble with the 3rd's WB. And it doesn't help that every screen I have viewed it from it looks diiferent:dunno

The reds in #3 are orange....:rolleyes otherwise it might rival my fave which is #4.

I have found the 50mmF1.8 to be a finicky lens. It seems to be fairly prdictable at F4 and smaller. When it is bad it is aggravating....but when it's good....it is REALLY good!!

Hi RM! :wave Nice to see you back and posting, it's been a really long time. Your son's gotten big since you last posted him. I like them all but #4 is fantastic :clap. Great to have you back and hopefully you'll stick around.

Thanks gluwater.:D I actually have 2 boys now, the baby in #1 is mine also.

I hope to post some more soon, but will try and refrain from flooding the boards with too many proud mama bird shots :rofl
