Lacock Abbey Brewhouse. AF-S DX Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G on a Nikon D2Xs.

I've photographed this gate hinge at Lacock Abbey several times. It is a perfect subject to showcase depth of field and diminishing perspective simultaneously. Recently I acquired a manual focus 28mm Nikkor lens with a maximum aperture of f/2.Bjørn Rørslett holds this lens in high esteem, listing it amongst the best performing Nikkor lenses. He remarks that it is excellent for DX, FX, and on film, and here I had it on a DX camera where it provides a field of view equivalent to 42mm on a full frame instrument. More normal than wide angle therefore but nonetheless maintaining the characteristics of a wide angle lens such as close focussing ability and great depth of field capability.
