Marvelous Fons. Like all 3 of them.

Minneapolis is blooming with spring colors.
While I'm testing an 105 2.5 AI on Crab Apple tree...

Fons' first image and Anirban's second image have beautiful colors in the background that emphasize the subject in a special manner :)

Fons, those american oaktree photos are amongst the most beautiful nature photos I have seen in quite a while. Thank you for sharing

Here is my humble contribution.

Very beautiful colours, Fons and Anirban.
Thanks John. :)

Very kind of you Jakov. Although I've started to think this lens sample(105 f2.5 AI) has back-focus issues, focus is slightly off most of the time.
