I shot this yesterday as a means of futher education in the use of a rather amazing lens - a 9" Verito. I want to learn how to use it in a manner that doesn't just rely on the SF aspects.. I shot this at about f11.
You know what's interesting, is that looking at the detail of the 'switches' in the foreground, this doesn't remind me of a Verito. Foreground subject matter looks sharper than what the Verito usually does.
I call the foreground shrubbery 'switches' because when I was a kid, and 'acted up', my mother would go out and break off a 'switch' just like one of these and then 'tear' me up.
There is about 3 feet from the "switches" to the headstone and my focus is concentrated on the small twigs. I used a small amount of rear swing to further shift the focus. At f11 the image does loose a lot of the glow.

Very retro looking Steve.

Take care
