Road bike crank with Sonnar 90mm - Peter S

Trying to get accustomed to large apertures with 35mm film format on subjects such as my Trek 5200 road bike (this was my 3rd photo with my G2). Taken with the Sonnar 90mm at f2.8. I like the bokeh, and despite its somewhat difficult AF characteristics, it is now almost my favourite lens on the G2.

I like your image and your using of minimal colors, it's a good compromise between art and technique :) And you are right, this 2.8/90, when well focused, gives stunning results, tack sharp on the subject, and in the same with a marvelous creamy bokeh when wide open or closed not more than 4.0.
