As always great to catch up with everyone! Must look at getting a cold drip coffee setup myself.
Now its time to explore the world of EL wire. :cheers:
Photography is not a crime, but perhaps my abuse of artistic license is?

Thanks so much to Patrick and family for allowing us all to disrupt their otherwise peaceful existence.

It was a great morning, with excellent coffee and camaraderie.

You should note how I carefully avoided the fact that you have two young tornadoes. :rotfl2:

Ands thanks for the lend of the 105 - I can't guarantee that you wil see it again :D Seriously, I can see myself ordering one of these for my MF prime kit - there is about $500 difference in price between the 2.5 and 1.8 versions on the KEH site!

lol, the difference between the 1.8 and 2.5 is pretty big (price) I am not actually sure whether there is much difference in quality, I just like teh idea of being able to have a 1.8 lens at 105mm :roll:

your 50 1.4 is very nice, the contrast and bokeh is very reminiscent of my 105mm :up: :up:
