The only processing I did was a little cleanup on the last shot (Nightfeeding). There was some black dirt on the red nipple and I removed that. Otherwise they are just straight from the camera and compressed by the photo host (Fotki).

I looked at the lens this morning, but I didn't write down the model. I think it was a Tamron 28-300 XR Di, which is reviewed here. I bought it for my wife to use with her Nikon film camera and it wasn't very expensive. It seems to work just as well for digital and film, though I haven't taken too many shots at the wide end, where there might be some barrel distortion.
