Wow! You made the best of that strange lens. Simply realizing the potential of the shot is laudable, never mind pulling it off !

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Amen ! Pulling details from the shadowy underbelly of the trees must have been some work.

Using this type of lens successfully is so difficult - you've certainly mastered it with this shot Nigel

Thank you all for your comments.
DanceOfLight you made me have a look at how much of a shadow lift I had to do. Not as much as I might have thought. In Light Room, Highlights -69, Shadows +60 but I took blacks down -55 to keep a good amount of contrast.
