Very nice and clear. I like the soft, pastel bokeh also.

Thank you, I too think this is a not common bokeh quality.
The merit is of the Leica-R APO Elmarit 100 mm f.2.8 lens. Not easy to use
( a few mm. of depth of field with diaphragm open, and obviously with manual focus) but with digital bodies one can try and try again.....
All the best MA,
Sandro

cool. they look like they are floating in air!

I know and use many portrait and/or macro lenses, but nothing as these Leica for the bokeh....
Bye!

Fantastic capture. I like the subtle, earthy tones.

[Rinkdaddy]

Very nicely done

Very good macro here - why didn't you put it into the "December-Thread"?

Very nice, Sandro.

Very cool shot. I love the sharpness of the pinecones.
