comment Should I buy this Nikon 50mm f/1.8?
@Tom - +1 !, additionally, its very, very difficult to keep focus on moving objects (even people walking around) at wide open, big apertures - the depth of field is razor thin

comment Should I buy this Nikon 50mm f/1.8?
@kacalapy - ok, once again, its not a "depth-of-field effect". Every shot has a certain DOF - the area that is acceptably in focus...you're talking about a shallow depth of field.

comment What remote flash triggers can you recommend, on a budget?
The lack of #2 is a little scary at first, but after a few times you start to just get a feel for what it needs to be and then its just minor tweaks. Shooting in RAW means that if you're a little off its not the end of the world too.

@Jay Lance Photography - Truth be told I was a bit nervous about posting them, especially the before picture. BUT, I truly, truly hope it helps some of the larger guys like me out there realize that you can have a decent picture made.

comment In portrait photography, what is 'broad' lighting? What is 'short' lighting?
LOL, you're asking a question based on the question that somebody asked you in another question about the terms you used. Its just funny. +1 for useful information getting out there.
