Really superb, awesome! Can't pick a favorite. And I'm glad to see such excellent results on the Pentax 100 mm, a lens I purchased recently (but have never got close to results like these). Were this taken in overcast or sunny skies?

Excellent work. But you got me curious about the DIY diffuser?? Haven't tried a diffuser with the AF160. And the IIs - I had pretty well talked myself out of a K5 upgrade

I would have expected the fine repeating patterns in the eyes to be potent moire producers. Did you need to do any funky PP to control it?
Wonderful images!
