Revisited Iris flowers, because I never seem to be happy with the attempts I have made in the past; and George seemed to nail it from the getgo using narrow DOF. Yes, they all are the same clump of flowers that my wife gave me. The 200mm seems to add a 3D quality that is stronger than the 105mm - even when wide open.
Thanks for the replies. I will take a phone image and post later.
My girls are out in an Orlando outlet shopping mall so credit card damage limitation is of primary concern at the moment…..
I was on a call with a couple of co-workers who are just north of Orlando.. They mentioned Kiwi Camera repair in Orlando if you wanted to try something local.

5DS-R and 200mm f2.0 ai @ f2.0
D800 with the 105mm f1.8 ais and modified TC-16A @ f4
I may be biased being a fan of flowers but all of them are fantastic.

Sorry about the camera, Colin. Worst thing that can happen while on holiday.
It's been a while. I took a shot of this cardinal today while I was working at home. 400mm f5.6 non-if ED + tc-200. Too lazy to take out the 800mm. Result is great.
The trattoria was one of the last restaurants visited by celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain. He met with a local blogger here approximately 10 days before his untimely passing.
It is a local place located just outside the old city walls of Florence. The menu consists of traditional meals at down to earth prices and service with a smile. The roast chicken and potatoes are well worth a return visit.
Photos were taken in a hurry as I was holding up some hungry traffic.

Colin since you are at the attractions it’s about 30-45 minutes by car or Uber to Kiwi Camera. He is just north of Orlando. Michael Livera is the owner and is very good and completely trustworthy.
Here’s the address and phone.
542 Virginia Dr Orlando, FL 32803 (407) 286-4073
As far as your girls go. Well it’ll start to hurt in a month when your bill arrives. Til then… don’t sweat it.

Help required!
On vacation my D610 IR fell out of a security locker from about 2 feet.
You will be pleased to know that no manual focus lenses were damaged The 18-35G took the brunt.
The UV filter got smashed up. I can't say if the lens is now compromised since I am still on vacation and having to do detailed testing on.
The D610's mirror only goes half-way. The camera still takes images but 50% of the frame is blackened due to the mirror issue.
So, anyone come across this?
If anybody out there has a D600 or D610 could you take a detailed images of the mirror box with the mirror in the up and resting positions? I need a reference point. I can see a small metal oval washer thing on the back left hand edge of the box that doesn't look right. In the resting position I can also see faint ghosting thru the viewfinder. Something (probably the mirror) is ever so slightly out of alignment.
I am hoping that a quick dis-assembly will reveal an obvious and easy fix.
Picked up my Z6ii with the 55/1.2 pre-ai wide open, first time for ages to take a couple of shots of my latest bike, a 2008 Yamaha YZF-R1. 176kg, 180 BHP.
Currently looking for jobs in New Zealand South Island, if that comes off I should be sorted for landscapes for years, and biking roads !
