Birthday in the park

Last Sunday I took my son Angus to one of his kinder classmates birthday in the park. It was a beautiful sunny autumn day with some fabulous food. I took the opportunity to fine tune my shallow depth of field focusing skills with the D800 and trusty 50mm f1.8. Instead of relying on a zoom lens, I used my feet as the zoom and kept the aperture wide open for maximum effect. Don't let anyone tell you that the D800 is limited to tripods and the studio.
