Hexonxonx - Very nice color. I have not tried close up like that with planar ( CY version ) I really like the rendering.
digitaljay- very nice. #1 is my fav.
eardrumbuzz - Great showcase of 28. I like the pov of #1. #2 is beautiful, but a bit jarring. Death is.
melbmanu - It seems the focus is at the edge of the dome opening ? I like it, somehow, the far view gets slightly soft and paintery.
Jim Schemel - Very pretty dissolved background
R.Young - Nice night sky. I like the #2 with car in the shot. A bug's point of view. Gives me a different sense of scale.
digitalgenetic - Wonderful still life shots. #2 is humorous, and very lovely. It reminds me of Pixar's table lamp.
melbmanu - nice undertstaed colours.
jim- nce close up.
R young - nice evening light.
digitalgentic - nice isolations there...any for stock?
gary - the 21mm works well there.
carstenw - will look out the f stops fro my 2 x 28mm pics.
Thanks Akul and Eardrumbuzz ! Akul wrote :

I really regretted I didn't have a tripod because I nearly shot 10 times before getting the focus where I wanted !! I was lucky the hairy guy on the flower was frozen by the damp environnement and stayed in place
I really love your first pic Gary, nearly B&W and the slightly altered faces to the left add to the bokeh.
A recent visit to the 124th floor of the Burj Khalifa. Bad visibility though, so pumping up the contrast and converting to B&W was the only option really - 2/35 again:
Very interesting "camel" set, Phil! I like your first one best. Though IMHO the camel in the back does not add to it, so a tighter cropping around the two lead ones might be worth a try. And maybe a black frame, to bring out more contrast...
