    Nice shot of a lovely flower, even though it was displayed in a much reduced size.

    Which new-old lens did you use?

    I am kind of a fan old lenses when my subject is not all that important. A fiend of mine found a Tokina 28-70mm ATX Pro for me somewhere in Japan. He is either bringing it home for me (he's in the Navy on a ship) or mailing it to me. This lens is supposed to be based on the last non-cinema lens that the French company, Angenieux, produced.

    I must have lost my photo posting ability Richard. Not sure why tinypics didn't do its thing as usual.

    The lens is a Nikon Nikkor 35mm f1.4 non-ai that I traded in one of my Micro-Nikkor 55's on. It'll be a fav once I get the 'yellowing' out of the glass.
