A couple from this morning, right before her mom showed up.

Here's a shot taken with the 105 f/2.5 AI-s with a 20mm extension tube attached. This is a really fine lens for such shooting, perhaps my favorite.

Let's bring this back onto the board in case there are any folks out there who haven't heard about this lens... Here are a couple of shot taken with this lens with extension tubes.

And one without tubes... a daring soul flying toward the open Pacific Ocean on his hang glider...

I dug this thread out of oblivion to help a member who was weighing which lens he should sell in order to buy the Zeiss 100 f/2. I suggested this Nikon classic as an alternative, one that he could likely afford without needing to eviscerate his existing kit. So I'm happy if folks are sharing a little love once again for this great lens. The Zeiss is a fine lens, but this humble old Nikon lens deserves all the kudos it can. I'd love to see some landscape shots taken with the lens.

This is a panorama stitched together in Photoshop of six or seven shots taken with the 105 f/2.5 AI-s. It is a touch wide but making it smaller really loses the feel. These were shot hand held at f/8.
