Editor's Note: These were taken with my lovely 50mm f/1.4 prime lens, set at f/1.8 and ISO 400. Half were taken at 1/125s and the rest at 1/200s. You can probably tell which is which just by looking at them. Slower speed = better lit. Faster speed = sharper image, although I was able to play some games in Aperture to lighten up the 1/200s ones.

As the boys were quite close, "flashing" them was out of the question and it was still too warm to open the blinds. Still, it's amazing how well f/1.8 works in low light! f/1.4 works even better, but at that range there would probably be just a whiskers width in focus. :)
