Regrowth of life from fallen wood

[ message here to those who want to remove everything from the ground of a forest or woods - if you do, you rob nutrients, texture, concealment and anchors necessary for future growth ]

Since selling off much of my medium format gear, I am coming to appreciate more than ever the K-1, and I often use it with Mamiya-C 645 medium format lenses. These are great lenses, built like a tank, and uniformly good to excellent from an optical standpoint. The older MF C and N versions are also real bargains with lots of quality for the money. For this series, I am using the K-1 with the Mamiya-Sekor-C 150mm f 3.5. It is a great lens that you can pick up for easily less than $200. It is pretty sharp from the very beginning, and the photos in this series are all with aperture wide open, and of course sharpness improves to razor sharp at f 5.8. There is also a version of this lens at f 2.8, much loved by portrait photographers. I will mention that there is a nice FOTODIOX adapter available to use these lenses on K-mount, but unfortunately they are not adaptable to Pentax medium format cameras because ofr incompatible registry distances.
