My wife is a classic when it comes to buying things for herself and then declaring, This is my birthday present, It sure saves me a lot of leg work and fussing over what to buy her. But I think she is about 10years in advance with presents at last count.

Prior to the FA* 16-50, the DA 16-45 was the thinking man's kit lens upgrade. I wouldn't mind betting it is quite a popular lens here too, amongst the better photographers.
I notice you have one!

Actually I no longer have it, I sold mine to Martin (malo) some time ago. Clarky wrote:
Some excellent shots in there George, but a few are a little off topic don't you think.
A large percentage of the shots were taken using the DA 16-45 I also noticed.
I was perhaps wrong to call it a competition. It's more a showcase, and it is within the rules to submit off-topic pictures. So the off-topics are actually on-topic.Some excellent shots in there George, but a few are a little off topic don't you think.

What if you bought the 16-50, and then the 70ltd or the 77ltd? wouldn't that be a treat?

I suspect George is refering to DP Review George Lazarette wrote:

The guy selling that lens is a member of this forum (distudio) and he has been trying to sell it for well over a year now. But he has come down in price since last time he had it listed.
So now is your chance George.

This one is a baby and only a couple of mms in size.
Chris have you ever seen one of these guys jump, they disappear in a split second, but it would be a neat shot if i could get it.
Martin I picked up quite a bit of junk on my sensor on this little excursion. Its just come spring and a lot of sticky pollen flying about. But I got it all cleaned off eventually.
Keep practising kerrowdown its not that difficult

I like how you got it all in focus, it can be a challenge.
I think its a type of Lynx spider, going by its flat face and the shape of its carapace (rear end) Well done keep em coming
