Limes

Limes

So my working theory for the disappointing images is that the 70-300m zoom was just too close to focus correctly, even though the focus indicator claimed it was ok. This image is from the second roll taken, and (after scanning and sharpening) is a reasonable still life, suggesting that a macro-like image is possible. I'll try some more this weekend, making a point to get the focussing distance correct, and try using the medium format to corroborate the results.
The limes are the first from our indoor bush (a sort of proto-tree) that has survived against prevailing odds.
