Voodoo Vibe - Ellen, Margaret and Amy

Voodoo Vibe - Ellen, Margaret and Amy in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

For the last day or so in New Orleans, I decided to carry only a Canon 50mm F1.8 lens, a.k.a. The Plastic Fantastic. While certainly not my best, it is light weight, simple, inexpensive and effective. However, the photo illustrates a serious flaw. See those extra 'Voodoo Vibe' signs? That's not some cheesy digital filter effect. They are reflections of light on internal lens elements. More expensive lenses have special glass and coatings to reduce reflections like these. Still, in this context, I think the effect was... interesting.
