The Final Part
Jake waking up with his Lego creations; adding that final and most important finishing piece...
I like this because of the blue glow, ambient light, shadow of his arm, the glow of the piece he's holding; and DOF with the lens at 1.8. An early shot with my new Nikon D80. The kit lens was just not fast enough for flash free pictures in my house. So I grabbed the series E 50mm 1.8 lens from my FG and put it on the D80. Put it in manual mode and increased the ISO. Started taking pictures and liked the look - seemed underexposed, but natural. Manual focus with this combination is work; as I dont have any focus aid - and have to rely fully on my eyesight; but I am havng fun with the combination.
