Nikon 85mm lens

Thanks, that's with the Nikon 85 f1.4 AiS, wide open, . . .

A dream lens, never have owned one of those. Someday I hope.

I own the Nikkor-H and Ai versions of the 85mm f/2. My preference is the Nikkor-H but I still use both..

It's a beautiful shot Robert. I was just joking over how loud those motorized cameras from the 70's can be. Of course, sometimes my M8 can give them a run for their money 😛

Thanks for the compliment.
The add-on drives on the cameras from that era were loud. I've got motors on my F, F2, F3, FA, FM-2 and FG and they're all noisy.
One of my other favorite shots came about because as I shot a short burst, the subject heard it and looked at me as she and her mother walked by:
motorized Nikon F2AS
Nikkor 35 f2 AIS manual focus
Fuji 100 ISO colour slide
exposure probably 5.6 @ 1/125th
