thanks. I was going for that DOF and really did very little PP, just a bit to the contrast. No tripod.

Yes, I wanted the shallow DOF and wasn't using a tripod. Thanks

very good colors (PP I would suppose) , good composition and DOF choice , but very "middle" IQ and lens distortion once you look at 100% , and this is with Leica and Leica lens ...

0 upvotes

1/60 f/1.4 because you wanted this shallow focus? Or because with no tripod, and that indoor light level, you had to use f/1.4 to get up to 1/60 of a second at ISO 400? I can't criticize, I've done that. I just wonder if you really wanted such narrow DOF.
