My son and his girlfriend

My son and his girlfriend came to my local town for a visit and so gave me an opportunity to try out my new tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 zoom...

I am more then impressed with that lens, tack sharp and has a nice bokeh to boot!

A nice set although I don't understand the need for the dark vignette? It doesn't really bring anything to the picture and for me spoils the overall look about them (sorry). On the up side the bokeh is

Excellent family shots….I like vignettes for this kind of shoot.

Lovely pics for the family album... and I agree with Fooj ...  Delicate  vignettes can work    to help frame a portrait and  can be a subtle way to  focus attention on a subject. The Bokeh  is lovely  too  ... in fact so much so that it could almost  be slightly distracting... yer can't win can yer ....

Thank you...i can see why the bokeh can do that but also great to be able to allow subjects to become speperated from a busy background!

Thank you...vignettes are useful, but as you say, in subtle way's.
