A couple of quick shots around the house with my new toys first, Zeiss 35mm Distagon 1,4 ZM and the second with the 85mm Tele-Tessar 4 ZM using the TechArt Pro Adapter.

Joshua--I love what you are doing with color this time round--very intense, vibrant, and alive.
And how did you get St. Mark's so empty for the background on the one shot?
Your shot posted a few weeks ago of St. Mark's in the rain--the one with the woman with the transparent umbrella and the blue-toned lighting--is one of the best shots I have ever seen of the Square, which I think is actually extremely difficult to photograph well. That is just a beautiful image.

Wonderful work, everyone. Fred that river shot is amazing.
Joshua: Your Venice shots never cease to amaze me. Stunning portraits.
Here is a recent one with the Loxia 21 stopped down
Chris, thank you very much. I am in Kakslauttanen in the middle of nowhere in Finland and I couldn't see your image and a few other images on this and previous page here due to the spotty internet connection. So, I will have to wait until several days when the internet connection is better somewhere else to say something about your image. Sorry.

Peter, I really appreciate your kind comment. I am very flattered.
Here is another image of Sophie Farfalla riding on a gondola and as luck would have it, the water reflection under the bridge really provides a unique effect that I didn't anticipate; I was counting my luck on this one. I took 3 images during a brief period and this is the first one.

I went out to a new location yesterday, an old school bus graveyard where they have been painted by local artists, and a working junkyard...though I don't think anything in it works, I think it is more like junk car storage...a couple of my favorites.

Very nice Gregg! What a stylish son you have! So cool to see
And I really like the colours and contrast of the Loxia 35! Bokeh can be a bit harsh at times though.
Heavy snow coming in over Oslo yesterday, so I took a walk around some of my favourite parts of town. My A7 was soaked at times, but miraculously nothing bad happened. The first shot is taken with the Summicron 75 AA, while the next two are taken with Summicron-M 50 v4. All are wide open. In the last shot you can also see that the Summicron 50 suffer from field curvature on the A7. I am getting the A7R2 soon, maybe its better on that version? For now I find it acceptable,at least I am aware of it and can try to avoid it. And the lens has so many other positive sides, both in terms of rendering style and usability (I love the tab).

By the way, is there a consensus for how large our files should be showed here? I have used 1600 as standard for width until now, but see that other opt for smaller than that also.

Thank you Ole! Yes, Giovanni is quite the dresser, and it's clothes he picks out. He's quite the ladies man at his preschool from what the owner/teacher tells us!
I never gave the Loxia 35 a chance first time I had it. Thought I'd try again. I really like the look, looks very similar to my Contax 35-70 @35mm, but the corners are better sooner. And, yes the bokeh a little crappy sometimes...but I have other lenses when I want bokeh
Love the Cron grab above...awesome 50!
Here's a somewhat bokehliscious grab with the 35

I set mine at 900 on the long side...I think that is what the Landscape Board used to use at the maximum, and I have stuck with it...

Thats impressive He must be quite creative I guess, and with good taste
I had the Loxia for about a year and a half, before i traded it for a Distagon 35/1.4 ZM. The Loxia definitely has a lot to it, it was my go-to lens for a long time while I had it. Its pricey, yes, but when did photography get cheap?

Thanks Travis, good to have that as a reference! I guess I will scale my photos a bit down in the future then (perhaps not as much as 900, but to 1024 I guess).

Beautiful, Peire! Snow, fog and golden grass...
Went to Røros again this weekend, this time with some photography friends. Røros is an old Copper mine town which is on the UNESCO World Heritage list. It was completely re-built after being ruined by Swedish troops in 1679. First mining activities started in 1645.
Because of the annual winter market the main streets were packed with people. Not my thing so I mostly explored the back streets. I'll post some in B&W later.
All A7II and CV Ultron 35/1.7 VM, except the last which is from A7 and Lensbaby Sweet 50.
