Terrifically done, Gary, and with a lens I don't think I've seen any images from before.


A good friend has been helping with my education about things Nikon and he waxed eloquently about this particular lens from his film days eons ago. Then I ran into a thread discussing the lens on another forum and reports were glowing. Photos posted looked pretty fine to. I've been increasingly interested in the less well known gems from Nikon and this could be one of them, especially at the price, which should be quite a bit less than $200.

Yeah, that bokeh is really unique looking, I like it. Never seen pictures from that lens either.

Thanks everyone. I bought it a few days ago in mint condition for $60 which was a bargain. Going rate for good condition seems to be around $90 but deals can be had for much less. It's a fun, light lens which seems to perform pretty well. I enjoyed framing the first pick so I had a natural vignette - the lighter area is actually a gravel road.

Great shot, Oasis! Love the detail and color. That 70-300 is capable of spectacular results on FX cameras.

Lucky Oasis Bill if they are rare around where he lives.
A mating pair can keep a whole suburb awake for weeks!!

Of more interest, they fly into the Sydney region from Kalimantan in Borneo where the female will almost invariably lay in the nest of a native Currawong.

The chick is raised by its foster parents as a carnivore till one day it flys all the way back to Kalimantan where it not only becomes a vegetarian it will set up home in a tree not more than 400 yards away from where its mother roosts.

There is a lot we dont know about genetic imprinting or why our own children invariably grow up with our worst traits, no matter how much we try

Great shot Bill

Thanks
Tim

Thanks Tim, That is interesting. When I said they were rare, I knew where they were from Borneo, and "stole" nests, but after that I had no idea they went home etc.... I had a pair of Channel billed Cuckoos here too. I only got some OOF shots but they were amazing looking birds, and the loudest birds I've ever heard. I'll put the pics up here when I find them.

What focal length was the lens at, Oasis? I never cease to be amazed at what the 70-300 can do in capable hands.

Also, thank you very kindly, and here's one more along the same lines:

Some shots of South Goa... D2Xs with 105/2.5, shot in JPEG Basic (last one bracketed and HDR'd). Didn't expect to take so many pictures and only had a couple of cards with me.

Pardon the JPEG compression artifacts.
