Hi all,

I've been very busy the last few weeks for my girlfriend and her ten years old daughter

move to my house. It has been a quite hard work (connecting two flats, totally painting

them, assembling some IKEA fornitures, cleaning, moving dozens of big cardboard box, etc.)

but we have finished now and I'm very happy about the important decision we have taken.

I've never been married and never been deeply involved with a woman in my life, I'm 50 yo

and I thought I would never have done such a step. I'm very happy this has happened and

that my life has changed this way.

You have already known my significant other, ...that's me

75-150mm f/3.5 E

Roberto

Congratulations, Roberto! I wish you a lot of happiness, and a long and prosperous life together. You sound very happy indeed! Thank you for sharing your personal story.
Nice photo too!

Using tubes with normal lenses tends to be my preferred way to get close. The 180 f/2.8 AI-s and 105 f/2.5 in its various versions are champs with tubes, but then they do everything well. But you'll find the 85 f/1.4 AI-s is very happy with tubes attached. An oldie but goodie...

Close crop of shot with 85 f/1.4 AI-s at f/8 with 20mm Vivitar extension tube

Great shot!

I love the cat photos too Eric. The first one is familiar and quite precious. Cat and boxes or bags... classic. Seems you're enjoying your new lens. It too is a classic!

The first one is great!

I was ripped off today! I was cleaning up and noticed Nikki Jr seemed to be missing. I found it on the wife's camera.
We were supposed to start her learning the MF lenses this weekend.. I guess she could not wait. I had entered a lot of lenses in her camera and she has seen me do it so many times figured how to get into the menu and put the right lens in. She even used my test subject and not too bad I might say. The strap was her dads who passed away quite a few years ago.

Congrats to your wife, Ron!
Thanks for sharing the story about the strap - I would have asked about it otherwise.

Two rather strange shots from today, taken at noon in very harsh light:

very special rendering of the background - 24/2 Ai wide-open

55/1.2 Ai wide-open without hood - lot's of flare and ghosting, rather harsh bokeh

Bedankt, Paul!
I like your summer-pictures a lot, it's just hard to pick a favorite - right now it's #10485.
Your 135/2.8 Q behaves in exemplary fashion - very nice shot!

I have one that sits and shakes and then growls at the other dogs and then one that thinks it is a social event. She likes to jump up on the counters and greet the staff. I think most are like Rockstar and hate it.

Paul: Love the last one!

I see the 16 has reglued itself to your camera. You'll have to send that 85 to me for some extra love

The good thing about my boys having early-morning band rehearsals (before school) is that it gets me out of the house when there's nice morning light. These are from this morning with the 55mm f/1.2 SC AI'd; I believe all are at f2.

Paul - love the beach shots of the catamaran... Also like the choice of b/w. Did you take the boat out?

Hey guys I have decided I'm going to let go of a few of my MF lenses I just can't love for whatever reason. I also have my D3x up for sale.

20MM F3.5 will be listed.

55MM F2.8 Macro will be listed.

and one more I forgot to write down on my list. I'm going to ask what I paid for them. I will look that up and post here later if anyone is interested. I have the D3x already listed on the B&S forum, but wanted to give those here first choice on the MF lenses. When I get home tonight I can post some photos of them.

Matt

Hi Matt,
More in hope than expectation but if lens 3 is your 105mm then definitely interested (Unless you are selling your 400mm 2.8 that you picked up for $25.00 then even more interested

)
Kind regards,
Mark.

The 105MM F2.5 and the 55Mm F1.2 are two lenses that won't be leaving my bag, except to go on the camera!

These are strange and have a very surreal quality. Nicely done.

Bert - great water drop shot! What lighting did you use? Almost looks like a sunset...

Thx Eric,

I used a sb600 flash aimed at the background which was a computer generated piece of multi colored paper.

Bert, the water shot is very nice!

Leighton can now pre-order his D600 . . . though I'm a bit disappointed in the price as it really makes a used D700 at $1500 or so pretty attractive.
