Some pictures from last summer. The plant is common willowherb.
In the bug shot I missed the focus somewhat, but I like the feeling. Both shots wide open.

One of the two lenses missing from my collection, reputed to be one of the sharpest nikkors out there. Nice pair

Thank you Patrick and Craig.

@ Patrick - I wouldn´t hurry to buy this one for shooting, if you already have those 55mms and a 105/2.8 and a 200/4. To complete a collection, that´s another story.

Well, I have that one, bit hard to focus at f4. The later f2.8 makes life a bit easier though.

Very special shots from color-composition.

Cheers

@ Klaus: yes, you´re right about the focusing. Mostly I use the plain matte part of my focusing screen, I have found it to be fastest way.

@Tobias: There were a whole field of willowherbs near our house, the tallest of them were higher than me, and I walked right in the middle to take photos with pink flowers and blue sky all around me. Smile
