Very nice. Good DOF - The saturated colors and higher contrast work
well for this subject. Probably less desirable for people pix, though. ;-)

At the risk of seeming like Johnny One-Note, I figured I'd share this
image I captured this morning. The mimosa tree in the front yard was
practically dripping with butterflies, and I couldn't resist the urge
to improve on my last shot. Still using the same setup ( K-x, Asahi
Takumar Bayonet [Taiwan] 135mm f/2.5, 2X teleconverter, 1/4000, ISO
400). I do tend to like strong color saturation, so I readily concede
the point if it seems a bit much, and it is pretty soft. But, I do
like the vibrancy.

I've been giving consideration to a dedicated macro lens as a next
purchase, but I think my next purchase ought to be a good, fast,
multi-purpose prime -- though, my budget is somewhat limited. What
would be the best investment as far as the more readily available,
older manual focus primes? Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Walt Gilbert
