That's pretty good detail for such an extreme crop! > Someone else asked to see a wide open shot. This one is at 5.6, > 1/1500th, ISO 400.

I count one for her top, one for her undershirt (I guess that's what it is), one for her bra, and (on one shoulder at least) her purse strap. Are straps the "in" accessory this year? I gotta say, I don't find the bokeh particularly pleasing - rather harsh, to my eye. Cool shot, though... cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
