Thanks, Dan.

After I looked at the photo, I initially thought I should have closed 
the closet door all the way. But, then I thought, "Well, that's not how 
it was." :)

I just felt obligated to use the lens and that was the most photogenic thing
that entered my field of vision all day. I'm supposed to take photos at a
small wedding tomorrow -- not so much as a wedding photographer, but as
someone the bride knows who has a camera. So, maybe I'll get some use out of
it.

Welp! I tried out the ol' A 50/1.7 today. I'd intended to get out and
take photos since it was going to be an unusually warm day for late
February -- around 70, give or take. But, when I got outside with the
camera, nothing looked worth a damn. Just a plain ol' dismal February
day, only without a jacket.

So, I came on in and hung my flannel shirt on the door to the closet
where I keep towels, etc., and happened to notice the colors of the
shirt matched the hallway. So, I took a photo of it and called
"Functional Décor" -- because that's the sort of thing I do.

K-x, A-50/1.7, ISO 800, 1/10 sec, f/2.8

I think a do like the sharpness of this lens a lot.

Comments, critiques, and outrageously exorbitant offers for my K-50/1.4
welcomed.
