An unusual choice perhaps for a bokeh lens... my “Duchess” (SMC Pentax-A* 300mm F4.0) shot wide open.

You get the best out of those Taks Paul, very nice!

I swore to myself...no more doves today...but this Mourning Dove came along and I sure did like the bokeh that came with her!

Thanks for your kind words, I try something different whenever I can, it doesn't always come off I hasten to add.

Good grief, i just looked at your lens collection in your signature, I'd never get around to taking any photographs due the time spent choosing which lens to use.

And that still applies even after I ruled out all the zooms, as I'm a prime man only.

I usually prefer primes as well, but not exclusively. Also most of my lenses (55) are primes while there are only 20 zooms.

Anyway, there are several Ladies in your signature (A 15mm, A* 85 mm, A* 135mm), which I miss so bad

But you do have those focal lengths covered albeit not by "Ladies".

Good to see you've got your LBA under control. Always enjoy the images from your assorted lenses, btw!

The PP really highlights the lovely tones here. Nice work mate.

Fine shots...and she is so lovely!

How about anything but a dove or squirrel?
