Saw this very tiny ( 1/4'" / 5or 6 mm ) jumping spider on my wall. He must have been on some flowers I had brought in from the garden. Had to get a few shots as he ran around my floor/carpet before I put him out side to live a nice life.
So second attempt with the new toy. Moving subject running around, hand held.

Birdie, you out did yourself with that spider image! The sharpness is just superb; way to handhold your gear doing macro and congrats on a new toy!
A friend of a friend made a post on social media about her 17 year old dog who is likely to pass away soon. I thought it would be nice to offer to go over and photograph her old doggo and other fluffy friends. She had an abnormally large livingroom so I had the pleasure of leaving the 135GM on the whole time. I ordered the 50GM a couple days ago, I hope its of a similar quality to the 135GM!
I was told the livingroom was quite well lit, though despite multiple downlights I still had to push into 1000ISO to go beyond f1.8 which was a little disappointing. I think the outcome was reasonable though. A couple of the images show a little movement, as a newbie to the 135mm focal length it seems anything below 1/100s can be a bit hit and miss.
