Hey Guys
I've recently bought a 2nd hand Canon 28mm f1.8 to compliment my 50mm f1.4.
I had a nice day out at Newstead Abbey to try the 28mm out and to be honest, I'm pleasantly surprised when I consider the very mixed reviews it seems to get! The lens it self seems pretty decent all round though not quite as good as the 50mm for bokeh. F2.8 seems to be the sweet spot for sharp images on my 450D (funnily enough, the same as the 50mm)
Usually the quality of my photo's aren't amazing. I'll usually be fairly happy (read: not over the moon with!) with maybe up to 10% of shots taken on a day out. Today however seems to have gone the other way and I'm quite happy with majority of my shots. The selection below has really stood out too me as being way above my usual average. So much so that for the first time I'm actually happy to post them on the net for others to see and to receive some C&C on them!
Most are taken on the 28mm while a couple are on the 50mm (all in exif). Some light processing has been done in Photoshop such as levels and sharpen etc.
All C&C is welcome
