Frank, that reminds me of the "Guelb er-Richat" in Mauritania.

Same in the GREEN thread or some other threads I started.

Can I ever thank you enough guys?

Yes. True.
Didn't like my 1.8/85G, sold it and swapped it for the 1.4/85 D.

From my 2 years with my D3 I found that lenses that work particularly well (in the range I regularly use) are the:

16mm f3,5
20mm f3,5 Nikkor-UD
AF-D 17-35 f2,8 (wish I owned one)
Any 50 or 55 mm really, but I prefer the
5cm f2 Nikkor-S
50mm f1,8 AF-S
55mm f1,2
55mm f3,5
AF-D 85 f1,4 (liked it better then 85 f1,8 AF-D or AF-S)
105 f2,5 (any)
105 f2,8 AF-S micro Nikkor
AF-D 80-200 f2,8
135mm f3,5 Nikkor-Q.C (should be the same for Ai and Ai-S)
200mm f4 Nikkor-.C (sharper then later Ai or Ai-S)

I tried quite a few other lenses, but for these the viewfinder gives me the best feedback for when focus is acquired, and I get colors and contrast that hardly needs post processing.

Just a personal observation though.

They like the rain apparently, they are in full bloom suddenly.

It's such a boring weather....
