Nice natural skin tones in what seems like a pretty contrasty lighting situation of direct sunlight and shade. Also, I think you're achieving a better overall feel from this lens than some other photos I've seen. Great combination of soft and sharp. Do you recall how much you're closing down in these pics? Whatever it is, it seems to work well!

Thank you, Brusby, your comment is sincerely appreciated. All of the pictures of people were taken at f2.

This lens is simply delightful!

All the best,
Mike
