Critique Welcomed Dark Lady

[Alessio Brinati]

another shot coming from the shooting with the beautiful catherine poulain.
this time immortalized with a modern Sony 55 Sonnar at f2.

This lens has a character all its own, very different from the lenses vintage I'm used to and I have not decided if I like it or not; But with it I can take advantage of the face detection and eye af with its exposure to the face and in shooting as they only allow you to concentrate on composition without having to vex exposure spots on the face, exposure lock, redial with the resulting risks

The focus is certainly spot-on, Alessio and it sounds interesting technology. There is also quite a contrast between the way the foreground / main subject and the background has been rendered and it gives a bit of a composite look. That is probably enhanced by the slight halo on her right hand side. How did you process the file?

Very sharp and contrasty Alessio...looks good in mono.
