Ok thanks. I hadn't thought of that but I see what you mean. There was a broad platform about two feet tall just behind where I was standing, so it should be easy.
Did you consider cropping out the fuzzy white bar on the bottom?

I actually did mess around with cropping the rabbit picture a little, but to be honest I didn't really like where the eyes ended up in relation to the rest of the pic, so I just posted as is.
As to your lens idea, well, kind of the right track, it is the same manual focus lens used on both pictures.
OK first guess, OM 50mm f/1.4 (cause that's what everyone has). Second guess, OM35mm or some other ~35mm. Otherwise, no cookie for me. Too many MF lenses from every mount, it could be anything...
...though it seems to have a perspective between 60mm and 120mm, 35mm equivalent. So 30mm-60mm in real life.
Okay, that was probably unfair, but I just wanted the cookies all to myself.
Konica Hexanon AR 52MM F1.8. Not actually the greatest of lenses, but it has a nice bokeh and decent colour/contrast if you keep it under f8 or so (any higher and there's a monstrous colour shift).
Surprisingly sharp wide-open, though.
If anyone is interested, old Konica Hexanon AR Bayonet-mount lenses fit on the 4/3s mount with no adapter and only a minimum of modification required.
The 40mm F1.8 is a pretty decent pancake-style lens for an E410 or E420, and with the latest firmware updates, it's possible to have IS on older manual lenses for the E5xx and E-3 cameras.

spooky. Anyway it will be interesting to see if it works out any better.
