    D800 70-200 at my friends music video production.
    After they were done I took pics. She is/was a model and she knew what to do and I hope I did her justice.

    Pretty Smile

    There are a pair of these about a mile from my house. At least I think there's a pair as I've only seen one but have heard multiple calls. Anyone want to venture what this may be? Beso thinks it's a kestrel. Another friend suggests an immature sharp-shinned hawk.

    Edit: I've spoken to an ornithologist (married to a co-worker). Evidently this is a merlin.

    Really nice Job @Elvishefer: Might I suggest a tighter crop to show off the eyes more?

    On the 645Z, the 75/2.8 is a good portrait lens -

    had my nephews round and the 14 year old decided to strike a pose

    Lewis!

    Honestly, this photo session actually started as a head shot session for business cards ... which she did print using one of my photos. She brought 4 changes of clothes and we put them all to use. This was the last and we decided to have a little more fun with it.

    The Commonwealth Games start tomorrow in Glasgow. The opening ceremony being at Celtic Park Football Ground (soccer ground to our North American cousins).

    Over 1 billion people, world wide, are expected to watch the games and 71 countries will be taking part. I am just hoping that the weather stays good for everyone. The opening Ceremony is due to start at 20:00hrs British Summer Time and lasts for approximately five hours. Featuring 3,000 cast members alongside 4,500 athletes from the 71 participating nations. The Queen will open the Games, reading a message contained in the baton which formed the heart of a 10-month relay across the Commonwealth.

    Just think what the games might be like if the USA had stayed part of the Commonwealth. What to rejoin? :-)

    Money from the tickets for the opening ceremony is going to a UNICEF charity.

    Any way. Here is Clyde, the mascot for the games. You might notice that Clyde (named after the river Clyde that flows through Glasgow) is a thistle with legs and arms.
