Gorgeous light and bokeh. These shots prove how good 85/1.4 AIS is.
Hang in there, warm weather is coming!!
LukaThank you Luka for the kind comments! Yes, the 85/1.4 AIS may be the old dog, but it still can perform 
Here are a couple more with that combination. Here's hoping for spring!

Very cool, I live close by (Edgewood) but work in ABQ every day (on base).
A walk with the family -- some cars spit up some dust so I took advantage of it

Hi Cputeq these images are superbes and really capture that NM east mountain light I love it! Is that on 217? We might as well be neighbors I'm actually in Yrisarri just off 14 and 217.
Then this one is for you an old junker off of Juan Tomas Rd.

Don, we only had 1 foot, but it was gone yesterday already. Your snow should be gone very soon as well. Maybe some dirty piles in parking lots will remain for a while, but the blanket that has had our dogs ask what the heck is going on should finally be gone for the year

Luka, love your tree portraits! I am still keeping an eye out for the 300PF

p.49 #13The Nikon FX Image Thread
Charles,
Thank you ! 300PF is so light, that it almost feels wrong. I am usually more impressed with short to mid distance. With near infinity, it is a bit hard to judge as atmosphere affects the shot quickly, but certainly, my experience has been that it feels harder to achieve near pixel level crisp shots. When you get it, your surfer shots will probably be a good judge for the performance of the lens.
On the other hand, I am shooting branches and twigs from distance, so no one cares about 'near pixel sharpness' but me. Ha ha
