Nikon D700 + Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 AI-S lens. Wide open with a shutter speed of 1/8000th. I don't think I've ever shot anything at 1/8000th before. Until today I considered 1/1000th quite adequate.

i'm a sucker for flower photos like this - just a little bit off the straight on bloom type. something with some interest in the background. and this background is so wonderful! the perfect amount of out of focus etc.

i'd love to have this in my group 'naturey crap - crappy nature' (name explained on group page) - if you want.

This is beautiful. Such a painterly bokeh.

Thank you, Bob. I think this lens may be better than the AF-D equivalent. But the 50mm Nikon that really impressed me was the Nikkor-S.C 50mm f/1.4. I had it only briefly. The focussing was stiff and therefore I returned it for a refund. If I hadn't paid top dollar I would have put up with the defect and kept it. The outcome was that it started an itch relieved only by buying the AI-S version.
