This is what the Zeiss 135mm f/2 Apo Sonnar T* ZF2 is all about. Sharp where you set the focus and creamy were out of focus, with magical Bokeh!

Jorge,
Good street shot.
Excellent use of depth of field to draw the viewer's eye to the homeless woman's face.
And her attempt to make eye contact with the passersby, who are oblivious to her presence, and ignoring her as they approach, tells the story.
Well done!
Robert

Agreed! Me too I have a "love affair" with my Sigma Art 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM - which in spite of it beeing a zoom with all the compromises an engineer has to make in it's design - it still is better than ANY Nikon-glass I have tried. Sigma A 18-35mm f/1.8 is a dedicated Dx-lens, but from about 30mm and up it's circle of projetction provides full coverage of the FF-sensor, at 35mm without ANY vignetting.

I am blown away with the level of sharpness, contrast and color the Sigma art delivers. I have been a Zeiss shooter most of my life but this just takes it to a different level. And, it's auto focus!

Ha-ha!
Typical. Political (and social?) convictions and (mis)belives, mixed with stubborn and folly opposition - tends to "blind" people ... some of these can be regarded as "proffessional protesters" regardless of who is the target, as long as they can "raise the finger" in their ignorance.

Some of these people did not vote and most had no real answer to why they were protesting other than vulgar outbursts.

Very special! A powefull scene and a very strong social portrayal. This is a cruel reminder of how one's life can change suddenly. It takes guts to take a picture like this.

Who needs a comb, or scissors, for that matter? Good portrait, Jorge!

Good choice of aperture value to separet the singer from the very unobtrusive background. I must check out this Sigma ART 50mm f/1.4 for mye "soon-to-come" D750 !!

interesting type you have portrayed here, Jorge. With his "Pharao"-like appearance, he clearly appreciates getting all of your attention! Good details behind the glasses and beautiful Bokeh from this 45mm Tamron.

That is my new travel kit :) A 200mm f2. One of two Nikon lenses I have not parted with and most likely wont even though I now shoot mainly Sony. The other is my 50mm 1.2.

Thought I would see what it looked like on my A6300.
