]]>]]>]]>My friend Andrew's cat Hugo enjoys a romp in the snow.

With Nikon D700 + 135mm f/2 DC. 

This is a rather old but fast lens which gives very good results, especially sharp around f/4.  It has an interesting Defocus Control feature which allows you to manually control the out of focus blur in the foreground or background.]]>]]>]]>http://akiralx.eyefetch.com/blog.aspx?post=63546Mon, 08 Dec 2008 06:40:37 GMTLeeds German Market 2008]]>]]>Photography : Dodgems
