Absolutely Heavenly!

That portrait alone makes me want to own that lens. Beautiful work. Love the out of focus areas and the overall framing. Great color and contrast!
Thanks so much all. I appreciate it. I will post a shot I took with it on my D7100 as well, its not a D810, but its much higher resolution than my D700, though really more than you need for any reasonable sized print or crop.
I got my D700 after my D7100... I am quite the pixel peeper and I thought I would regret the "only 12.1 megapixel" camera... but I like it even more... it prevents me from zooming in to 200% ... which is good, because there is nothing at 200% crop that will ever be seen on a normal sized print of anything... and the file sizes are so much more manageable..
I love this lens on both bodies though. It's just a fantastic little lens.
I got my copy for $440 in basically brand new condition a few months ago. Though the serial number puts it manufactured in the mid 2000's.
I just got a Nikon 80-200 AF-S 2.8D this week, to have a bit more versatility. And while, obviously, not as sharp as the 180, its still pretty darn nice. I will probably throw up a review with image of the 80-200 soon. Not that my reviews are actually very helpful, just for fun
