135mm f/2 wide open at 2.26m according to exif. It was getting late, light was fading so I thought I'd give this lens a try at fence melting. With hindsight the focus is slightly off, just a fraction too far forward. The front edge of the eyes are barely in DoF but the rear isn't.

That's a shot I'd be pleased to have got, Popo... and it's a great illustration of how shallow the depth of field is.
