Bluebirds mainly eat insects, so maybe they are out hunting!

Interesting discussion. I think I am a confirmed prime lens shooter except for the Leica 35-70mm macro. You can tell a confirmed prime lens user by the way he still zooms with his feet when you see a zoom lens affixed to the front of his camera!

I love that black deuce coupe, especially since it has been kept original instead of being converted into the kind of hot rod the Beach Boys sing about!

Love the photo of this little girl. There is a freshness of the captured beauty, innocence, and intelligence that is breathtaking. I think she will love to see this photo when she is an adult. Great use of the amigo!

Bokeh at f 4.0 with K-1 and Pentax 67 135mm f 4.0. We planted around 106 dahlias this season, and could lose them all to our first killing frost . . . almost any day now.

Yes, Richard, I like this little macro every time I use it. 50mm is a little short for macro work, but it works great for flowers. Also, I find that it and the Sony A-99 (alias Hasselblad HV) work well together for fast and accurate auto-focus, which is an interesting feature for me because I normally use manual focus for my flower work.
The AF Minolta 100mm is also a great lens, and a more traditional focal length, better for most subjects, I think. Thanks for noticing my photos. ivan

Dahlias with K-1 and Pentax 67 135mm f 4.0 macro. This is a good prime lens for flowers, and nice for close focussing.

Dahlias with K-1 and Pentax 67 135mm f 4.0 macro, well, more of a close-focus lens than a macro, but great for flowers.

K-1 and Pentax 67 135mm f 4.0 macro. This lens is excellent for flowers but not for macro work. It is more of a close-focussing lens than a macro.

Great shots of the white dahlia, think I have this one too. A close-focussing 135mm is pretty much ideal for closeup flower photography, I find. I catch myself often using the Pentax 67 135mm f 4.0 macro, adapted to the K-1 with lots of sharpness and no vignetting since the K-1 uses only the innermost part of the big P67 lens.
