^nice portrait

but with as apature as sharp as 2.8 your going to want to make sure
you focus directly on her eyes
looks a little ooF on her eyes imo

edit: after looking at it again the left eye looks sharp but maybe its the
glare on he right eye that makes it look ooF

They probably could be a little bit. It was a kind of a spur of the moment type of deal... that.. and combine the manual focus of the D40 with the 50mm.. lol.

heh, just for the hell of it... a full size of her eyes.

lol dam didn't know about the manual focus
then nice work

It's hard taking self portrait pics in the dark lol. I had to use manual focus for the one I just posted. Take a shot, get up and adjust and repeat. :P
