That is some razor thin DOF!   

I really like the photo. It has that "glow".  Nicely done.

That is great. DOF is over rated.. you used it to you advantage there or the antiadvantage. Whatever it is great.

Thanks, Jim, With this lens, it is hit and miss when using it wide open. Yes, it has the Leica glow, or whatever they call it.

Thank you, Larry.
I wanted Dana to be in the OOF area of the image.

The contrast between in-focus and OOF works very well, a classic portrait.  75 mm is a nice focal distance for portrait work.

Raid, have I mentioned before that you have a beautiful family?  How did that happen, I wonder?  Cheesy

Really sweet pic of your daughters, and your wife is as lovely as ever.  Thanks for sharing.
