Love it

Thanks for the comments. This guy was being pretty calm. I got some really good pics with the 35 macro and DA 50-135, both great lenses. The one posted here is actually a 100% crop, so not as close as it looks but a fine testament to the ability of the 35 macro and K5IIs.

Wow! As others have said, it is a great shot. Outstanding 100 per cent crop.

**K2 to K50** · 04-26-2019, 03:25 AM

Bah!!

I hate people who make me insanely jealous of their photographic abilities.

But yes, an absolutely beautiful, mind-blowing shot, even allowing for the fact that it is cropped!!

I must know, even if the answer makes me even more jealous: hand-held or mono/tripod shot?

Outstanding.
