just got my almost-new Sigma 30mm f/1.4 in the mail today, and took a couple of test photos to make sure it was operating ok. the shallow DOF is a treat, w/ creamy bokeh on the side. yeah, i'm turning into a photo geek.
a cold beer (and a new lens)

You're not actually going to drink that, are you?!? 
Would you rather have a Natty Light 
?
?
that lens is supposed to be a keeper, real nice.
i was looking for a fast, wider prime for concert shots...hopefully this fits the bill to a T.

Lens = good. Thought you were taking a picture of a beer? 
I've always liked the bokeh of that lens.
That, and the Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Di macro...
Let us know how it performs for you.

i am not ashamed to admit that i think corona's a good hot weather beer, and the pilsner urquell was all gone.
I'd take that Corona over that new LT Hefe that I bought.
I don't know what it is, but Long Trail brews just don't do much for me.

I see no beer, but it is a nice picture.

I drank part of a Corona when I was in Ohio at my inlaws. I couldn't finish it though. I made a valiant effort, however.
Are you ok? Are there any ill effects? I will rush a Dogfish Head if you are in critical condition.SkaredShtles said:

I made it through with almost no noticable issues. Other than a few lower GI things.dogwonder said:
i got yr lower GI right here, pal.
Yeah. In the form of a Corona.narlus said:
Not falling for that one again.narlus said:
fixed it for ya...Changleen said:
ok you 'men', what do you drink on a humid, 90F day? some 7% IPA?
Ummm........ yeah. Why do you ask?narlus said:
Hold on. We don't have any 90F humid days.
It's a Corona- Beer from mexico works for hot days. Drink it like it's a soda. It not like it'sSkaredShtles said:

white zin...
Changleen said:
Better if it's got a wedge of lime jammed down the neck of the bottle.
Yep...Or in some cases, maybe just a nice pale ale. And I'm not ashamed to admit I'll have a nice pilsner that has <gasp> barley and hops.narlus said:
i love dogfish 90min IPA as much as the next hophead, but i'm not gonna drain 3 of those after cutting the grass on a hot day.
Bud Select!narlus said:
or a cold Hefeweizen.narlus said:
You caught me before coffee, I would drink a 90min after mowing the lawn if it were that or the Crapona. But I usually stock my fridge with hefe's for summer beers. MMMMMM...Circus Boy, Swetty Betty, and Sam Adam's Hef.narlus said:
Sorry for the confusion, I hope I have not offended anyone, especially the hefe's...
Edit: What Tenchiro said
A Belgian Wit, my friend.narlus said:
i've had my share of wheats, whites and weizens this summer.

Go ahead, embrace the lime.narlus said:
All I'm asking is that you put in into a margarita, and not beer.
I'm surprised that beer didn't crack your new lens...
New Belgium? I don't drink any of their beer.BeerDemon said:I'm guessing you don't have any taste buds anymore after a steady diet of that New Belgium sewage
I had an IPA after mowing my yard on Monday evening. Just one.narlus said:
they make beer?SkaredShtles said:New Belgium? I don't drink any of their beer.
...after? Man, if you're going to be a suburbanite, you gotta drink it "While" you cut the grass.... or that hedge you have in the back yard.SkaredShtles said:
I prefer Pacifico or Dos Equis, but a juiced Corona is really hard to beat, just drink the little bit that's in the neck of the bottle, then top it up with Bacardi Limon. Very refreshing on a hot day (Better when using Pacifico, but Corona is still good)Changleen said:
No it's not. Almost any decent ale beats it.maxyedor said:
