Hyde Park Bee by Christopher Deacon Via Flickr: Meyer Optik Trioplan 100mm f2.8 Aperture was either wide open or, at most, closed down to f3.2 This photograph was taken in May 2019 in Hyde Park, London, on a very pleasant sunny afternoon. I am amazed that I was able to nail the focus. I have taken literally thousands of photos with this manual lens, some of which have turned out to be pretty, but at my best, the focus is still somewhat soft. In this case, even the legs of the bee are crisp - not easy with this lens wide open!
