Gee, Dave, I can see the whites of his eyes - great job. I'm unfamiliar with the lens you're using; what's the story on that one?

thanks jer..... here's the forum info Kiron / Lester A. Dine 105mm f2.8 Macro Lens Reviews - Miscellaneous Lenses - Pentax Lens Review Database
i think this is the 2nd or 3rd i've owned..... it was originally intended for dental exams, and the company, lester dine is still in business... but alas, no pentax iterations being made these days.... made like the proverbial tank.... beautifully damped action..... the bokeh is creamy and images can be tack sharp..... dave m
