This small little set from the garden is photographed using an unusual lens, a 50mm f/1.2:

https://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/50mm-f12.htm

It has been in production since 1978, so longer than me. It's a tiny metal tank with manual aperture and focus. A fun little lens to play around with.

Other than age, the f/1.2 aperture is the really unusual part. Depth of field is extemely shallow, the lens is very fast, and focusing is very hard wide open. It also has a very particular bokeh that is both soft as well as a little chaotic. Parts in focus seem to "glow" a little.
