Thank you, Frank!

I was kind of worried that the pier might seem too distracting or out-of-place, but it seemed to work out OK when I got it on the computer.

Thanks, Jack!

I do like the lens, and have been able to get surprisingly sharp shots
even wide-open, and really sharp ones at 2.8 on up to 16. (Oddly enough,
I can't think of a time when I've shot with a narrower aperture than
that.) But for the lack of aperture contacts, I might have used it more
than my 50/1.7.

The passenger window is on the right side of the car in this case, as I
was riding shotgun while my sister drove.

Nice wing shot, Walt! I keep an M 50 f/2 around because it doesn't take up a 
lot of room and the mid f stops surprisingly sharp.
Is the "passenger window" on the left side of the car?

Hi all,

Caught this one through the passenger-side window of my sister's car with the M 
50/2 on the K20D. Didn't have a zoom on hand, unfortunately. Still, I was 
pretty happy with the results, all things considered. It's a fairly tight crop, 
but I'm happy with the overall resolution, too.

Comments and critiques are welcome, as always.

Thanks,

Walt
