Good examples of what my favorite over-90mm macro lens can do. [Love that first one especially.]

A great lens that you've done a good job with. One of my favorite macros.

Very nice!

Since I got mine a couple of weeks ago, I've enjoyed playing with it wide open for softer, painterly effects.

It's a wonderful lens, I only let mine go when I bought my Samyang 135/2.

I also like it, most for larger and/or shy insects and spiders but also for a less shy red fox

Amazing shots. And I have been less successful with the red foxes I've seen. They don't seem as willing to stick around as yours was.

After an extensive search I've just discovered that I haven't got my 135 / 2.8 Macro any more. But I do have two 135 / 2.8's. And I thought I'd sold one of them at a collectors fair a while back for £5. I sold the guy the wrong lens while I was distracted with another customer. Rolling Eyes

Ouch! Well, I suppose, look on the bright side maybe? Perhaps at a future boot sale you'll come across another one for very cheap. Just remember, the close focus 135 is the only Vivitar 135/2.8 with a 62mm front filter size. So you don't even need to crank the focusing collar.
