Roxsan, which aperture on these images and your previous post? G35 looks great at center on this and your previous post, but corners (in largest Flickr size) look pretty blurry.

hello Samuli, most of these pics were at f2 or f2,8, yes, seems Planar needs closest aperture for a good job ... so sorry for this, it's a great lens on G2 camera, much different in A7.
Samuli, this shot is fun to look at and technically interesting to me. You used a good stack of filters to make this image happen and achieve excellent DoF. Are those flares on the left? Or, some kind of 'light-in-the-mist' effect? I also notice that the clouds must have been unusually still (in comparison to the ocean); they seem to be very stationary over the duration of your 35 second exposure. Nice daytime long exposure!

Jim, thanks - I don't know what caused the flares on left, but sun was just in the image edge and A7 sensor isn't at it's best in such situations - also B+W ND 1000x is new filter to me, and I'm not yet very familiar to it's performance (that I know that filters were clean, they got later some drops from the waves, but I checked after these shots the filters and there were no dust or water). Good observation of clouds, they are also "too still" in +60s exposures, wind must have been very small, can't remember anymore.
I wish I had the beautiful scenes that many of you have to shoot. I'm just glad that we finally had a day of sunshine! (Lansing, Michigan has more overcast days than Seattle, Washington).
