People, people, people – portraits, portraits and portraits. I love to shot people, close-up, happy face. I shot them in candid or while starring at me. The shot you are seeing above is taken with a Canon EOS 550D and Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR LD Aspherical lens. I love this lens, not only because it’s extremely sharp but also because it’s fast. It has f value 2.8 all through and that really helps in low light situation. I fired a Speedlite 580Ex II flash bounced on the roof with a diffuser. I was close enough to make the background disappear completely behind the person in this picture.

Here is another shot I took this evening, a running toddler. Nothing is tougher than capturing a 14-18 months toddler. They move a lot

I mainly shot at night, outdoor and on the street because after my fulltime job, I get some free time during those hours. Most of the time I carry a flash with me, or at least a fast 50mm (f/1.4) with me to take shots easily. And hell yeah, I love to shot distant lights in bokeh – I love Bokeh, a lot. And light fittings are one of my primary interest to shot during night.

All the shots above were taken with Canon EOS 550d and my favorite Tamron lens, SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 . You can check more in my Flickr stream by clicking on any of these pictures. I would love to see your comment and some
of your beautiful night shots.
