This was my last picture I took in Yosemite a few days ago. The park was evacuated for a possible damaging flood in the Valley. I was there for 6 days and had rain pretty much every day.
Taken with my A7RII and Zeiss 85/4 ZM.
Ha ha - recognised your style and guessed this was yours before even checking the name. Lovely.
I've been recording the demolition of a huge area of land close to where I live. It used to be a veg & poultry market fronted by two rows of double storey buildings used as restaurants and accommodation for many families.
All bar one gone now .. and the demolition team are knocking down the shops one by one, only two left to the right of the sole remaining restaurant still open. I spoke to the owner - he and his family have nothing, no work, no new restaurant, after he closes and they knock it down for fancy new hotels and shops.
All shots taken with the CV35/1.7 (love this lens, thanks Helena and Philippe for your many wonderful shots and review, that persuaded me to buy it) and the batis 85/1.8. On an A7rii.

Another beach, albeit a rocky/pebbly one, image after sunset from Montana d'Oro near Morro Bay, California. FYI, the blurry lower corners were caused by moving and semi clear water during exposure.
My tripod took a tumble here; thankfully only the tripod. I was changing the lens, a big wave swept the tripod and tipped it over. Oh, well, no harm done on both the tripod and ball head, fortunately and more importantly, the camera/lens didn't get wet at all. Phew!
