<p>I am making a serious effort to get on good terms with the 135mm focal length, in which I have owned but seldom used several lenses since 1974. Today young Mifu helped me.</p><div></div>

<p>Sanford, <em>Protestor </em>is very well done.</p>

<p>Gah, I have shot <em>so much </em>this week. From a camera swap meet last Sunday, to a walk around downtown, to an outing yesterday with family and friends. I am still shooting almost exclusively with my FL 55/1.2 to learn the ins and outs of this lens. It is turning out to be very rewarding. It is a huge, heavy piece of glass. Over 1 pound of metal and optics. But I find it handles very well on the a7 with the battery grip attached, which is always on my camera anyway.</p>

<p>So here are a few more examples from my lens learning process. I have so many to choose from I hope you will forgive me if I post 4 this week instead of 3. Selecting these was a chore as it is. Enjoy. (This first by the way is a straight out of camera jpeg.)</p>

<p>I have so far used this Micro-Nikkor only as a general purpose lens, and it has performed admirably.</p><div></div>

<p>David, love shots 1 & 2; Adrian nice capture of window reflections! Like David, I have also been shooting quite a lot. Our yard is delightfully overgrown so I'm making the most of the endless variety of Dandelions in various stages before they get mowed away.</p><div></div>

<p>Second one...</p><div></div>

<p>Great shots, everyone! Nice weather today, so I had a chance to be outside for quite awhile. Here are a few with the a6000...this first is with a Canon FD 50/1.4 S.S.C. mounted.</p><div></div>

<p><em>"Fall Watercolor"</em>...this is a completely frivolous shot, but it was kind of a fun feature to play around with.</p><div></div>

<p>Some of the foliage is well on its way to full Fall glory!</p><div></div>

<p>I'll follow Andy's beautiful fall photo with one taken half an hour ago.</p><div></div>
