Through working in Brown Bag I have become a big fan of shallow depth of field in my photography. I recently purchased a Canon DSLR and discovered (not surprisingly considering the price) that the kit’s supplied lens is very limited. Don’t get me wrong, it has a decent range and works for most conditions if not pushed too far. But I realized that if I wanted to achieve more in my photography I would have to buy a new lens.
After some research I bought the Canon 50mm f1.8., mainly because it was cheap and also it has a very shallow depth of field. This lens is a great portrait lens for that reason and is really fun to use. The following are some pictures I took of some of my work colleagues.
