Northeast Harbor, Mount Desert Island, near Acadia National Park, Maine
Shot from the 'Balcone D'Italia' on the top of Sighinola mountain (1320 m).
The Milan (not Eagle, nice name for the bird that close to Milan...) flies 1000m over Melide and our house in the right corner at the lakefront...
From our terrace we can see the mountain top some 4 km away but it's a long way to go. It was a very hazy day with not the best sight and shooting conditions. My wife pointed me to the Milan,s sailing their circles using the upwinds.
This was shot with the LAEA3 adapter using AFC and wide area, worked pretty good because of the background and the birds not to fast.
After a long spell with Otus 28, I was beginning to think this lens is so good that I can make do with "only" the 28 and my 85. That would save me 1kg and a few bucks...
With this in mind, I put my Otus 55 back on my camera, to see if I really "needed" it.
The sign of a truly superior lens is that you just can't do without it...

I don't shoot weddings but when a family member or friend asks me to be a second shooter I am happy to do so. These are from my nephews wedding a couple weeks ago in Spokane, Washington. It was great to keep the G 85 on my A7Rii (all pics below with this combo) while I swapped other Canon lenses on my 5D3.
