A very nice morning view, I like the colours and the rendering :)

You had a productive morning. My favorites are the two with strong color contrast, #5 and #10. Beautiful.

+1 from me.

I like #9 with its mixture of sharp and soft focus elements.

A very nice morning view, I like the colours and the rendering :)

The Nikkor-O is a very special lens. In the hands of someone who understands it and its quirks, beautiful results are almost guaranteed :D

Note to self: where is my Nikkor-O? Haven't seen it for a few days ...

Lovely series, Fons!  You do justice to the venerable Nikkor-O!

thank you Birna, thank you Akira.

Next i will use the tripod, these are handhelds, dont want to go thrashing about in the garden, tripods are awkard in such situation.

The Nikkor-O allows for very fast shutter speeds. Thus a tripod is more a nuisance than a necessity with this lens.
