I've driven past this scene every morning for the past few weeks and this morning, I finally had a camera with me:

And here's a pair of photos from today's early morning walk with Miss Abby:

I've tested a few Nikkor lenses with my Nikon D700.

AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED works great across the whole range of mm's and from wide open to f22. Past f11, it becomes diffraction limited though.
AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR works great across the whole range of mm's, but starts to get a hot-spot at about f8.
AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/4G ED VR - not tested yet.
AF-S Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR - not test yet.

I have a few older Sigma lenses I have not tested either.

I removed the UV filter from my Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 IF EX DG, and the slight problem with hot-spots I was having disappeared. I'll have to try that with my Nikkor 24-70 as well.

I think I have the same drill press (14" Jet). And I use the same kind of vice clamp too, ha.

You are correct! I've had it for over 20 years. It has seen a lot of use.
