Q Garden

Seeing as how some folks have been wandering around their garden with a big, heavy, expensive, new lens on an equally big, heavy, expensive camera, I felt inspired to wander around the garden with a small, light, cheap, old(-ish) lens on an equally small, light, cheap and old(-ish) camera i.e. the original Q + 01 prime. Here are the results. They are clearly not up to the quality of those from its big sibling. However, the Q + 01 is 10% the weight of a K1 + D-FA 85mm and (in 2013) was 6% of the price. And I'm pretty sure that I had 100% enjoyment while wandering around with the Q.

Thanks, folks. It's definitely the best way to see my garden. Wide angle would show it as the mess - sorry, that should be wildlife friendly place - that it is .
