Charles,
These are very educational. Quite different from each other. Especially the difference in rendering between 58G and 50 Art is quite stunning. Is it possible that Art has deeper DOF, and the tansition is more rapid ? 35's bokeh, of course, is smaller, but that is no surprise. No judgement, just my impression.
Luka
Thanks Luka Yes it is just fun to play with the different styles of renderings. Surprisingly the more time I spend with the Art lenses the more I like them

I always love the reflections that smooth, calm waters can provide! Nice capture, Luka!

This is the first image that I took with my "poor mans 2/200", the 2.8/180 AF-D. I really like the size and weight, it balances greatly on my D750.

My first BIF shot ever! Nothing spectacular, but I have only static heron shots so far.

Congrats Jannik with your new 180/2.8D
Very nice shots! This is the strength with Nikon lenses as there is a whole arsenal of old and new.
More shots with my favorite 70-200E

Thank you, Charles! The 180D is working much better than expected, a great option to get a cheap fast 200ish lens. Nevertheless, it will probably never the lens that people dream of (opposite to your gorgeous 70-200E).
Great atmosphere in you shots, Charles! You make me want to be there right now!
Instead of this, the last roses are wrapped in frost.

180D, and its AI counterparts, have always been under my radar. From what i have seen here at FM, images look great. Your shots prove the same. Not too expensive, and light weight. It just that I can't justify too much overlaps as I already have way too many lenses with overlapping FL in various ranges. I think someone ( may be Curtis ) from Manual Focus Nikon Glass thread even mentioned this lens (MF version ) to be the one lens to take if you are left alone in an island. Many people express that update is overdue. That would be probably true, but then again it will see a major price hike.
