Olympus OM Zuiko 180/2.8 "Made in Japan" variant with latest coatings.Solid,compact and lightweight lens (for a fast 180 telephoto).
Sharp across the frame wide open,with occasional veiling and bluish LoCA around high contrast areas,that can grow really nasty with some white objects against dark background.All that easily correctable in PP.

We lost our daughter 6 years ago in a New Years Eve car accident. She used to enjoy dancing with our grandson in the Bon Odori Festival here that honors ancestors of Japanese heritage. We still carry on the tradition and Darius participates in the dances, now honoring his Mom and Great Grandma. He is pictured here with a friend of the family who is one of the festival dance instructors.

^^ sorry for your loss but what a great way to honor her
Skagit Valley last night...28 otus
fyi in case anyone cares....I drove up there from Seattle and it was totally overcast. Still yuck at 5pm so I went to Burlington Costco to run a quick errand. Came back out and it was car wash rain, but the winds had blown a blue sky hole in the west. So I went to one of the places I had scouted and had a great night. As I was leaving, it started raining again....
