Thanks... I think! Not sure what you mean by that.
Hi Helena -- Please let me clarify -- One photo of that set looked like a conversion of VW bus (Eurovan?) to food truck. I thought it was a play on words Volks = People's, Munchen = Munich, Bavaria (the region famous for VW Westfalia campers), and Munchin' = munching (food). Bavarian People's Food Source, or VW Munchen-Munchen.
Perhaps my cobbling together of non-native language ruined that effort!
No alarm intended -- I mean high praise for your photos through my "liking" of your post -- as you always deserve!

Happy Holidays!
Thanks for explaining, now i understand! I figured you meant something nice, but didn't want to assume.
While I'm at it, here are some more snow photos. The light can be really nice and dreamy this time of year. These are taken around 13:00 (1PM). All A7II and CV Nokton 50/1.5 VM:
Loxia 21. I tried the Batis 18 but the parking garage concrete wall was in the way. A nodal slide would have helped in this situation. Actually, I needed a 35mm lens for this. My FE 55 was too long.
Contax 100/3.5. After photo work during the day, I wander the main roads in towns I stay in, and photograph people in their workplaces. Amazing how many are happy and friendly, lovely and really alive, genuine. The 100mm convinced me manual focus works (for me at least) and even seems to settle subjects, as I turn the ring. Huge hit rate, maybe 60% I am happy with, for comps (some fast repeat brackets for eye blinks, etc.) The a7r lets them know when the picture is taken (!) so they can relax. 85-100mm gives plenty of personal space, for street - in their society at least.

Hi Philip,
A7R + C/Y 100/3.5 is a great combination as you have demonstrated it again and again.
Congratulations.
