As usual, there are many wonderful images to browse in this thread! Sony should have a direct link from their Alpha Universe website.
These are from a recent vacation in Oregon...mostly family stuff, but it was fun shooting in such a beautiful location.
The last one may not be for everyone (anyone!?), it is a Photoshopped version of the previous "straight" image...but this location and view (especially with a volcano called "Wizard Island" in the center) begged for a mystery/fairy tale effect, and the oil paint filter in PS satisfied my desire. For this image I used my A7II with 12mm f/2.8 Rokinon fisheye lens, the latter of which helped to created the bend in the trees as if they were giving way to the view. (12mm also used on second image.)

just catching up from the past week, wonderful shots everyone! love the last set twoeye. congrats helena, glad to hear it's finally over and you got the cabin! we've been going through the same sort of thing these past 6 months getting outbid on houses and finally managing to get one we like.
Another shot of my wife from our recent day in the park testing out some ZM lenses (for my amusement, not hers). This one is taken with the C Sonnar 50/1.5 at f/2.0. Bokeh is typical for this lens, being fairly structured and with circular bokeh balls all the way to the edges. Definitely not a lens for everyone, but it has quickly turned into a favourite for me.
This is one of my recent first astro-landscape pictures. Post processing turned out to be quite difficult for me and I'd appreciate suggestions for improving the post processing. Not sure how you typically reference raw files, but I'd be happy to share it if needed. (Since I haven't reached the posting limit yet, please excuse if I can't directly quote any replies / suggestions.) Thank you very much in advance.
Last week I could not resist buying the Voigtlander Heliar 12mm. What a fun lens.
Took it to the Erasmusbridge in Rotterdam. No vertical lines anyway.

Ah ok. I did it fast on an uncalibrated desktop machine. I'll tone it down later. Thanks!

Not so much for the tilting CA horizon - it's been low enough
