Press 'z' for the full technicolor squidginess. Shot with a secondhand Nikon D60 and 18-55mm kit lens bought in 2009. My first digital SLR. It was a revelation. The following year I sold all my Minolta stuff for a fraction of what I had paid for it. Photography was never going to be the same again.

I used an AF Nikkor 85mm f/1.8D lens at f/8. The out-of-focus highlights surprised and delighted me.
