Friday night, I brought my A7II and Canon FD 50mm F1.4 SSC with the Techart Pro adapter to a neighborhood Mardi Gras parade. All pics were taken at F1.4. The Techart focused better than expected despite the low light.

Last week when I was shooting horsetail, I experimented with using the SR app on some of the images. There were issues in that some of the foliage was blowing around and this made it less than ideal. Still, I am happy I tried. Here is one that I thought came out well in that it gave the clouds an interesting character. Thanks for looking!

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.

Thank you Helena.Sunny winter mornings at the foot of the mountains are sometimes picturesque.

TY for kind word, Peter. That 85 looks strong
Winter Bull by unoh7, 500/4 P A7.KolariUT (Ultra-Thin) No cropping necessary
This is a very unusual mod. A new type of glass technology driven by the cell phone market is creating absorptive IR glass of unprecedented thinness. The Leica M9 has .8mm, which is considered minimum, though some claim Canikon has used thinner. I can't track that down yet though. The new NK mods from Taiwan, where the base coverglass, a clear .7mm glued to the sensor, under the filter stack in the A7x, is stripped along with the 1.9mm filter stack, inspired Illija at Kolari to source this new ultra thin (UT) IR cut and avoid the dicey proposition of pulling the glued glass up.
The UT is better with the Leica wides than the V2 Kolari with lenses like the ZM35/2, in terms of the FC which glass over sensors causes with high incident angles lenses. Above I wanted to see how it felt about long glass and look for signs of color issues. It was quite overcast. I warmed the image a bit. This is a prototype, but Kolari will likely offer it shortly.
Of course, anyone who loves native lenses would not want to do something like this, as they would not perform quite as well. If you are a M/LTM nut like me, though, it is so nice to see the mods progressing. Thin filters are a mere niche, most mods are for astro photography, and now the A7x has been extensively modified by that crowd, from partial to full spectrum. The sensor is moved forward to keep infinity where it should be.
This bull elk and his harem are at the center of a local controversy
Very confused situation really. Nobody living has seen more snow in our valley than right now. Elk are re-introduced and cannot migrate as they once did. Winter feeding is normal, even in very mild years. But there is a big fight over it at this particular place.
Thanks for the hay! by unoh7, 500/4 P WO
I am just nuts about the OOF with this lens
It's a real monster. I put the passenger window down halfway and rested the giant hood on it. 
This was the last Manual Focus prime ever introduced by Nikon, I believe in 1988. Only 8 elements in 6 groups. ED glass of course. At only 3000 grams, it's ultra light for a 500/4. Only two "P" lenes were made. That means it has a CPU for metering. The other P is the common as dirt zoom-nikkor 1200-1700mm. But everybody has one of those
This lens is about 1500 USD these days. That other "P" cost $75,000 new in 1990!

Wow! So much great stuff!
Special shout out to Fred for his Yosemite shots, and Joshua for his fantastical Venice shots. Helena -- I'm in love with your "outsider" approach to the town. Bob -- So glad you got up at 4AM!
I'm chomping at the bit, hoping I don't have to "re-qualify" after I get back to my computer in a few weeks!
Great thread!

Nice work! I think everyone here has seen thousands of pictures, often repetitions of Mr Adams' work but yours show a Yosemite in a a different way I haven't seen before.
