Got a new lens

practicI got a lens (50mm 1.8) off Ebay and tried it out today. The point of it is to get a better depth of field, or softness to the photo. Here's two of Bodie as an example. His eyes are in focus but the further away from the center of the photo you get, the softer and more blurred it becomes. It will be a nice addition for portraits. I need to manually focus it on my camera, and I'm sure I will get better with the focusing with more practice.
