First image. Magenta in the trees...

Looking for fine detail in the brickwork...

Bricks are nicely sharp, image rectilinear ...

Whoa! the noise in the leather chair ... !

Great focus in the dark; the white fur around
the mouth is perfectly exposed

Excellent detail in the white areas... but plenty
of CA on branch shadows at right

Good focus, clean image...but plenty of
CA on the camera at top of image

The same view as image 2 above,
but forced to ISO 400. Noisy noisy!

All of these images are unretouched, posted exactly as they came out of
the camera (though renamed). All EXIF information is available.

While you're at it, have a look at some of my other photos on my website
