Male Crowned Lemur - perched, Palmarium, Madagascar Best viewed full screen. Some additional f/1.4 experimental shots. I learned along the way that for up close photography, it tends to be too soft, the depth of field is too shallow. At about 5-7m of distance as seen here seems to be a sweetspot for this lens (85mm), enough of the subject is in focus and the background is soft as butter.<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/88453/male_crowned_lemur_-_perched_2_palmarium_madagascar.html" title="Male Crowned Lemur - perched 2, Palmarium, Madagascar"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/2/88453_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=cUU1kppTxWs1R3I15PaCKnUfETY%3D" width="200" height="134" alt="Male Crowned Lemur - perched 2, Palmarium, Madagascar Best viewed full screen.
