Nice, Keith. (Also, an example of a more than worthwhile photographic result that can’t be obtained with a modern, up to the minute, lens design. Unless I miss my guess.)

^^^^^Almost Monet-like, Andreas. So much nice work in this thread recently. Springtime.

thank you Larry.
Having fun playing with lenses in the garden, and with shallow dof ( even though that might not be all that popular here )

Keep it up. These images highlight exactly why shallow depth of field, and management of the out of focus areas are not a “fad”, no matter what anyone here occasionally says. Everything has its uses.
I’d love to have that earlier one on my wall.

thank you Larry. Generally imo photography is a very wide field with many possibilities and as such all have their right to exist.
If you really would want to print out one, please download the original file size from my flickr, if that isn't possible I'd also send it to you via email
