Have been shooting with two 'old' Nikkor MF lenses.  Took one, a 105mm f2.5, out for a spin this afternoon. 

#1 Monarch butterfly, I think.  Either that or a viceroy

#2 Grasshopper hanging out in a lotus blossum


Thanks for viewing.

That's a great lens Kenny...would love to convert that to EOS for some manual portrait shots Smiley  Nice captures!

Very nice images, Kenny  I like the grasshopper image the best (very sharp/crisp).  The background in the first image is a bit distracting for me.

Thanks, fellas.  These old Nikkors are, indeed, some good glass.  Now, if I just had a FF cam to use them on.  Grin
