A nice day at the Chicago Botanic Garden. This is probably some sort of echinacea. The picture shows off the bokina rendering.

I also have tokina 90 2.5 and is one of my sharpest lenses . Is very good at macro and also for portrait and landscape .
The only negative is that is has a lot of focus breathing ...

This club is dedicated to a single great lens, the Tokina AT-X 90mm f 2.5 macro (1:2). The AT-X 90/2.5 is an A-type lens with excellent build quality, and it couples well with Pentax cameras even though it lacks AF. This is a very sharp lens with excellent rendering for macro but for much more including portraiture and landscape. All photographs with this lens are welcome for posting here. As for macro, the AT-X 90 has 1:2 capability, but an attachment is available to take the lens to 1:1. Macro photos using the attachment are especially welcome. This lens has the nickname of the Bokina because of the excellent background blur or bokeh that it produces, and photos showing off its bokeh capabilities are welcome as well. Postings on the history and development of the lens will also be welcome.

Ivan - we finally got around to making this a club!

It has been around since 1/16/17 but I have been neglecting to contribute to it. Thanks to your message, I will try to change that.
