Sespe Aspens

I spotted this small grove of Aspens and thought I would see what kind of bokeh I could get out of this new lens. I was happy with the result. this lens is about a 10" FL and covers my 8x10 at infinity. Any comments are appreciated.

I say you got a keeper here. It has a very nice background blur when shot wide open and a little swirl going on also.

Jim, Looks like you are having some fun with the old Seroco.
After i saw your post i put my 10" Conley on my 8x10, thought that the two lenses would be cousins or something but mine does not even over 8x10 at 20 feet.

Thanks for the nice comments. I like the look of this lens. Even though it is marked 5x8 ( which is hard to see) it does cover the 8x10. Great center of interest and some nice blur and swirl, not over done. It will make a nice portrait lens.
