Had a nice outing with an interesting prime that's new to me, the DA 21mm limited.

This thread is a fascinating essay on one man's descent into full-blown LBA. It started innocently enough, but then MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

agreed... little did I know, 82 pages ago, that I would currently own 16 primes, and be in the market for 2 more...

Thanks CR. I tried to do minimal processing on that one, taken with a K100D. Here's another with the same combo, taken Halloween weekend. This feed store sells a lot of stuff besides feed . The "mobile vet" comes here 3 times a week for low-cost pet care as well....

considering a shift, which will entail the sale of several primes (21mm through 35mm - 5 of my lenses), to buy an HD DA20-40 Limited zoom lens....
