Many good shots. I am always impressed with the 7-14mm , whilst trying hard to find excuses, not to get this lens, as it is expensive.
A few shots here from a village I grew up nearby and I do have an affinity with the sea. I enjoy being out on the water, it is a freedom that has it's attractions.
Savingspace, very nice image. The saturated foreground , receding layers and the lit up mountain, all make up a great image. I like the tele length lenses for landscape which works here very well.

Hi I am near Mevagissey and often pop down there. I know most of the fishermen there and feel happy on the quay taking pics when they land their or work on mending gear.
You might know this guy then,he spends a lot of time in Truro.

Thanks juju! I am glad I had the 100-300. It would have been "perfect" if the air was clear. Thanks again!

I could see from the Flickr full size version that there was a problem with the haze which interfered with the clarity, but the colour rendition is what struck me that the lens has a lot to offer. I dont have that lens, My tele lenses I am using the canon 70-200 f4 which gives wonderful rendition on the OM-D as does the EF 400mm f5.6. Both are great for landscapes as you can do everything manually.
But I have also been using the 75mm f1.8 and stitching. It works out very well.

Haze is an issue in parts of Oregon unfortunately. That 75mm is a beauty - I have been admiring your pictures with it.
For me, 12-35 and 35-100 has to come first though.
I guess we would like all the lenses available, but it is a compromise for me. I do want the 7-14mm but with my daughter off to University this year, that takes priority. My wide I am making do with the 12-50 and at the 12mm stopped down it is ok, For a kit lens superb in many ways, or at least adequate for most of what I do.
Been messing with a few landscapes a mixture' 1st 12-50mm 2nd 45mm f1.8 3rd 45mm f1.8 4th PL25mm stitch
