There are a fair number of photographers who seem to be unable to refer to a 50mm lens without adding the cutesy label "nifty".

In extremely small doses I smile. Beyond that I cringe.

I understand the history and derivation. Back in the day most cameras were sold with a 50mm lens. More often than not you had one lying around. These days it is an investment in that focal length, just like any other.

No other focal length is afflicted with such a nickname.

Why must some seemingly always attach the nifty when speaking of a 50?

Grumpy older man or silent majority?

Well...that's a good question.!, At the end of the day, It is what it is.

Were you also warned about the drop bears?-I find this type of humour fun but silly.the locals will/should let you know about the local insects and snakes to watch out for...I think doing the big lap across the top.... the crocs were the one thing I had in mind...don't let the locals reassure you "no crocs here mate"

This "T"was found in outback Queensland recently and the "B"model seen last weekend reminded me of a 31 "A" sedan And "B" Tourer I owned in the late 50's, paid $40 for the tourer.. today it would cost $60 grand.

With the ability to combine images in camera, ( i.e. canon 6D ), a bit of planning is needed...
One method,to get started is to take a silhouette image of subject or person then choose the fill image to suit.
the images below were taken during an art installation, A combination of Artist and art and an exercise in pre-visualizing.
#1, Artist and Art, #2, Artist on Artist, An uncomplimentry placement of eye in mouth.!. a discard.
It is a good technique to have in tool box. The process must be compared to post processing which is more controlled.
