Portraits of the boys - long weekend

Decided that it was time to take a couple of portrait shots of the boys.  Saw a really nice photo in a finance mag using natural light and a very short lens, so got out the kit and set up a spot.  Irritatingly then discovered that the lens was back focusing at very short F-stop, not something that I often use.  So onto the old youtube to find out how to calibrate it.  Love the fact that there were many helpful folk who had taken the time to explain it, one of them, nice youngster from Singapore had even included a link for printing a calibration sheet.  Followed the steps and sorted.  Here they are (Ev got a dressing gown from Tracy for his birthday, which he basically lives in full time when not in school or sports uniforms.  Makes me laugh - he is such a cool little guy, thuggish missing teeth and all):
