I appreciate it very much!
Very tender picture!
Well, my 85mm I often use for nature and with the 50mm I've taken most of my macros. For me, primes are the real thing in photography!
Well, I use my 'vintage' Nikkor 50mm/1.4 with extension tubes for the macros, so I can get really close. For example the latest coffe-drop/water-drop pics in my gallery were made with this combination. The Nikkor 85mm is a f2.0, also vintage, which is a joy to focus manually.
I also use an external flash (with softbox) mostly from the side of the subject to give it some depth. When taking pics of nature or nature-macros I totally rely on natural light and add some punch to it in Photoshop when needed.
Yes, sometimes I have to crop my images to get the composition I want.
I'd love to have a 105mm Micro-Nikkor. One day!
