Procrastination & Experimentation

Nandina domestica (a.k.a. "heavenly bamboo")

 

Procrastination because I should have been doing yard work, and experimentation because it was my first go with the AI-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.2, an all-manual lens I picked up used on eBay and learned of from Russ Barnes' blog on Nikon old skool---vintage glass without antique prices. It's not razor sharp at f/1.2, but produces some sweet "artistic" bokeh (so they say). It's a solid, gem of a lens.

 

Filters: Singh-Ray LB ("Lighter, Brighter") ColorCombo (warming polarizer + color intensifier)
