Seriously great images, especially the last one. Reminds me of the Hovis ads of yore. Excellent work.

Background rendering is superb, colours and composition spot on - think she should have ironed her top though
LOL, thanks both, I've one where the top certainly doesn't need ironing, its a little NSFW thou

Further to John's suggestions, it could be worth restoring the settings to factory defaults and is the firmware to the latest spec ?

#4 for me and i think a much closer crop just around the main flower is in order.

The 150 - 450 is a superb lens for wildlife, I purchased it mainly for the Mach Loop but since the flying's decreased, its not getting used much.

Example of the 150 - 450 @ 450 on the K1 as below

Ok, time to come clean,

The shots are from a Sigma 85mm F1.4, had it a couple of years, not used much but I think I will do from now on , quite likely one of the last few new ones available, I probably paid a slight premium as the usual stockists didn't have any, and this one came from Amazon, but it was still just under a 1/3rd of the price of the recent Pentax version.

I've a portrait shoot coming up in the next few weeks and plan to use it then
