See lots of (great) shots taken BY the alternative lenses (as it should be) but what about some shots of the lenses themselves?

Comeon, turn the lenses around and lets see those babies! Some of them are actually pretty sexy and their curves really sensuous...

My two Takumars and Two Zeiss lenses:

A couple shots mounted up

This post is very interesting. Indeed, some lenses (and cameras) can be pretty objects, like this Leica 90mm.

When seeing this we also realise how fat the Canon lenses are, even the 50mm f1.4 looks big compared to his little cousins here

My Pentax-M 50/1.4:

Carl Zeiss Distagon 35/2.8:

A Belarusian Peleng 8mm fisheye:

My lost love:

And, of course, the Rokkor (I think this might have been taken with the EF 50/2.5, not the Tamron 90):

Pentax-A 50/1.7:

Inner beauty is right. Not so sure about the outer beauty

Voigtlander. Love this lens:

This old pic is missing my S85 and Mutars II and III. Plus, the lighting is not that glamorous. Taken with 1Ds and EF 35/2.

For the analog purist, here's a nice handful. Taken by 1Ds, AS200, one Profoto w/ beauty dish:
