The 100mm APO 2.8 is my primary lens - for a number of reasons:
	1.	it is my most recent acquisition and I'm not even close to being
done experimenting;
	2.	it is so sharp that you can count the molecules in the pores of the
skin of your models,
	3.	it's narrow DOF wide open allows for isolation of your subject;
	4.	every time I see my slides from it, my breath is taken away.
	5.	this is an example of it's performance:

	When the R8 is pulled from my Domke F2, the 100mm is ready to go.

Bill,

I think that picture (PAW/11.html) is beautiful! The lighting is superb
IMHO. The alternate (the lake in winter) is also excellent.
Congratulations!
