Oh, nothing fancy, just my good old Nikon D200 with a AF-D 60mm Mikro-Nikkor, one of my favorite lenses.
Two more examples of the same shoot, some of my ultra-classic Spydies:

Looks like a good week to keep a low profile with the wife, complement her on her hair that type of crap.

Good advice, should have done that a few of years go.
Been single for 11 years, retired 10 years ago.
Two engagements since has told me this. There won't be ex #4, tired of the dance.
Anyway, I buy, sell, and trade almost daily, just a hobby and always looking for the "next" treasure.

It's a fun hobby, even more fun if you don't have anyone to report to :)

It's the beak opening hole...it just doesn't flow well with some blade shapes, but it does quite well with that one.
