Thank you very much, Werner! I do enjoy IR images; they look so different and in a good way, of course!
Back to the a color rendition of the same beach and this will wrap up Pacific Grove. This is my parting image before I left and yes, it was dark and I used SRA on this one. Based on my recollection I ended up with 8 images compiled together, for sure, it was less than 10.
Great shots, Werner. I've been meaning to ask how you keep the sky and water (in your previous lake shots) from going jet black, as I've seen in most IR photography? I like your rendition better than overblown white trees and black skies!
First set with my new-used FE G 70-200 f/4... I worked as usual for me at aperture priority but in this case it would have been better at shutter speed priority
Interesting lens also if it should be named 70-180... to be honest "mom Sony"
I noticed these files are a bit heavy so I apologize for any inconvenient caused.
Joshua, Manuel: great shots from the coast
Charlie: I like the shadow-light contrast in No.2 very much.
Bob: Nice to see what the GM can do in your capable hands.
Here is one from me with the GM 41mm at f9. I initially had my doubts/buyer's remorse whether this big zoom was worth the cost and weight penalty, but Fred and Guy (as almost always ) were right; especially at wider FL's it replaces several primes.

Drury Plaza hotel in downtown SATX. Captured with the fantastic Batis 18mm. There were guests around me eating breakfast so I didn't have much time to frame the shot. I am a bit off on my composition and then there is the guest lounging around that wouldn't move.
First shot with the 35 ZM and the TAP. Please don't kill me, I know the background isn't sharp. I didn't have a tripod with me, and hence had put the camera on a pole, while holding (to prevent it from dropping). There also was some haze, which impacted sharpness quite a bit.
