As always, so much quality in this thread! After seeing some of the photos from Iceland, most recently Ronny´s beautiful beach shots, I cannot help think that that will be my next target for a holiday.
Just a couple of pictures that I took tonight, here in Oslo. Both are taken with Sony a7 and Loxia 21. I am so impressed by this lens.

Really enjoyed shooting today with Zeiss G28, G45 and G90. Rendering styles of these lenses is very close to my preference. Hopefully G21 has similar rendering style. All have issues wide open (G28&G45 boke, G90 chromatic aberrations), but stopped down 1 stop as good as I can wish for.
Earlier when I was shooting with G28 it was really crappy light (>10000K) and got magenta color cast to corners & short sides. I had to develop similar method/script to CornerFix (it's not available to Linux). On today's photos there was no color cast. Weird...maybe the Kolari thin sensor cover glass does not filter UV-light enough to shoot in very crappy light. Good to find that on normal light this lens doesn't need colorcast fixing with Kolari 0.8mm v2.
sounds great, i'm planning on having this be my landscape setup – all contax g and i can throw the tiny 35 lux pre-asph & jupiter-3 in the bag if i plan to shoot people too. whole rig with batteries is smaller than a canon 5D or nikon D810.
A7RII with Tamron SP 35mm F/1.8 and Commlite Canon EF adapter
This Tamron SP 35 has very close focusing 0.2m (7.9in) and is impresively sharp. It also works quite well with the low cost Commlite adapter sparing my more expensive Metabones IV for Canon lenses which do not work with the Ommlite adapter.
This photo is an experiment. It is a composite of a seven hand-held image stack auto aligned and focus blended in Photoshop. The composite image was then saved as a TIFF and imported into Lightroom for final editing. The depth of field was so shallow it took seven images to get the entire cactus arrangement in focus.
Two more images of the same Reddish Egret from Bolsa Chica. The lens used is Canon 300mm f/2.8 IS Mark II with Canon 1.4X TC Mark III. It was early in the morning: some parts of the area were still in the shade while the sun lit other parts already.
Photo taken October 1, 2015 at 9:58 AM looking at a Maple Tree in Autumn color behind some confiers, Heart Lake (Lake owned by the Adirondack Mountain Club), the Adirondack Mountains, Lake Placid, NY. Image taken with my tripod mounted Leica R 180mm f3.4 Apo Telyt lens and my A7r. ISO 200, lens set to probably f11 for 1/80 second. Processed in LR6.
