Magpie nest. This was my first shot with the new lens. Thought it would give a reasonable hint about sharpness or resolution power, but alas, I shot the wrong film. Still, it was pretty fun to play the AF game "which branch in focus" for a while... Well, manual focus is unbeatable for this type of shot...

Tech: FA*400/5.6 at f/5.6, 1/500 s. freehand. Film: Kodak Elite 200
