beautiful eye!
tight makeup even at this level. makes me wonder what lens you used... great job for a "practice" shot. really nailed the lashes and great eye color!
:iconxtanya-dear:
aww thank you so much!
i just used the standard lens, 18-55mm. it was hard getting it to focus.
:iconroseylippedbatfish:
You did great - the one thing I liked about the kit lens was how well it did up close. Did you have to switch to manual focus on the lens to really get up close?
I just picked up an inexpensive "prime" lens for my xsi (50mm f/1.8) for around $100 it really shines and is keeping my 18-55mm in the bag -lol wish I had access to your makeup artist.
have a grr8 day!
:iconxtanya-dear:
Yeah i had to set it on manual, but even then it was hard to get it focused well.
I think I might check that ';prime' lens out, whats the brand if you dont mind me asking?
I got to play makeup artist in that shoot, and model haha.
Have a great day too! or What ever is left if it

I really like this.. at first i thought it was just your eye, but the detail of sparkles on your eyelashes is amazing

I want to live where soul meets body
And let the sun wrap its arms around me
And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
And feel, feel what its like to be new...
:iconroseylippedbatfish:
yep, manual can really make you work but you get sooo close.

it's a canon lens - great introductory lens into the world of primes. got mine from amazon it's called the 50mm f/1.8 mark II .. google for samples and info, it seems to be very popular.
flimsy lens that might break easily but for the money it's the best lens for the buck out there.
sounds like you are very multi - talented - great job!
:iconxtanya-dear:
awwww thank you darling
:iconxtanya-dear:
thank you so much!
i'll definatly check it out. I'm working on getting some new lenses so I might pick that one up too!
