OMG!! What a wonderful capture here. That lens is really amazing as is the bokeh, color rendition and sharpness. It truly is a convenient lens to have. I had mine for quite some time and I still kick myself for letting it go. Again, great job as that detail on the bee is awesome. Thanks so much for sharing.

Thanks for the positive comments, Tonytee. Although the F35-80 is not generally well regarded, I'm quite happy with my copy especially with abundant light.
