The day I saw the news of this lens' availability on this site, I immediately ordered a copy of this macro lens. I've been chasing a decent snowflake photo for years, and I hadn't ever gotten one, and I hoped this lens would help me do it.
Well, the stars finally aligned, and we had decent snowflakes today! Here's my shot!
As it was, it was slowly melting away. I took a few shots of this flake, and noticed it was a little smaller each time. The other tiny flecks on the image are part of my wife's minivan's paint job I was looking all over her car for a single flake I could photograph and finally found one.
