So what is the lens that survived the distillation process in the
40-55mm focal length range?
Actually, the choice of a lens depends much on the choice of the other

If you have a 28mm wide-angle, the 43 fits much better.

I like what you were going for. If the sky was blue, and not cloudy, and
the grass in the foreground cleaner, I'd be inclined to like it. As it
stands, its rather boring. Also, I think I would ditch the tree there, and
focus on the horizontal aspects.

Not happy with lo-res scans on CDs and the labs want an outrageous price for
hi-res scans. Thinking about getting a Pacific Imaging 3650 Pro - Anyone
have any experience or insights into this?

Hi Bill,
I'm inclined to agree with el gringo (who the hell is THAT! Maybe a friend
of That Guy? LOL)
Yes, the tree or bush is obviously obscuring a boring sky and a
putrid-green grass. The field of yellow should be orange, the sky darker,
the foreground foreshadowed, and the depth of field
Just in case my message got lost in my earlier message, I like this shot a
lot ... its simplicity allows one to walk right into it, become a part of
the environment, feel the gentle breeze and enjoy the fresh, slightly heavy
air. Ahhh ... another Haiku photograph ;-))
