Taken yesterday...

Just got this ever so humble but very capable (I'm very surprised at the bokeh wide open) Nikon Nikkor 50mm f2 AI-S (here on the Nikon F3HP)

new HS-12 lens shade for the "new" Nikkor 50mm f1.2 :o

Hi Everyone, we have a "Wildlife", "Macro" and "Landscape" section, but I have a lot of nature photography and most of it isn't one of those categories, so I was having difficulty trying to find a place to post it. Nature also encompasses trees/plants, stone/rock formations, sunsets/sunrises...

I have three Zenitar lenses now in my collection and they are each very interesting in their way of rendering bokeh (with strong circular components, especially the Zenit Helios #40-2 85mm f1.5). These hail from Russia (yes I know why buy from there...just for fun and well I am actually half...

Got yet another Zenitar lens, an 85mm f1.4

Just got this Voigtlander Nokton 58mm f1.4 SL II S modeled on the Nikon D800. Such a classic beauty and can't wait to test it out. :D

Just got this Nikon Nikkor 50mm f1.2 and can't wait to test it in the field...(I plan to test it against other primes for bokeh) Here it is on a Nikon F3HP

Got the Nikkor 50mm f1.2 today. :D Here it is being modeled on the Nikon F3HP.

From Labor Day with the Zeiss Otus 55mm f1.4 on the Nikon D850...just a quick test shot of flowers (was trying wider aperture effect)

Labor Day shooting with the Zeiss Otus 55mm f1.4 on the Nikon D850 around Boston... Separation of different elements in the photo is quite striking... I'm struck by the resolving power...

First model photo shoot trying the Zeiss Otus 55mm f1.4 on the Nikon D850 :o (all taken at f1.4)

First photoshoot with the Zeiss Otus 55mm...

Just got one of these in auction and it's on the way :o

Call me crazy but for fun I got the Life+Guard skin for the Zeiss Otus 55mm f1.4. This was not easy to put on, but certainly sets the lens apart in an almost more industrial design sort of way. And on the Nikon D850 ...

Got the Zeiss Otus 55mm f1.4 in the mail today :D ....I wouldn't want to spend so much on the lens new, and wasn't even planning to get one (I thought I would save for the 85mm) but this was actually an insanely good deal, so much so that I was surprised I won the auction. The focus is ultra...

Found a good deal for this lens in a flea market (just kidding :o, but a good deal nonetheless and a six year dream fulfilled)...
