I keep enjoying the 28mm f2. My only lens for the past 4 days. A dam in "La Peza"

[John Geerts]

Beautiful Paco.

Great lens.
The 55mm f/1.2 is also really enjoyable 

[golunvolo]

Thanks John. That 55 looks special too...

Today, Jan 3rd,  I went to see an exhibition of HO scale trains with the intention of grabbing some images, but I evidently left my technique in 2017. I missed nailing focus on most shots. Sheesh!

I need to settle into the D7200, which is way more demanding that my old D200. Practice, practice, practice, is exactly what I need to do. This was the not all that great best of the bunch.
