Werner - you continue to put out winners.
Ronny - you are justifying why Loften is on my list.
Joshua - stop it!! I don't need another lens right now!, e.g. 85 f/1.4.
Sony A7r and Leica WATE. New Zealand South Island forest.
Dave, if you are into portrait or people photography, you owe yourself a treat and try out the GM lens. In that usage, it is by far my favorite lens. So much so that I wouldn't even bother with the new Sony FE 100mm STF lens. It can be soft even if you stop down as in the case of the blue lady above or "strong" as the one posted below at wide open aperture. Yes, of course, it has to do with the PP but the characters of that lens are flexible to do both superbly.
I did a lot of kneeling to capture images at the same level. I asked this model to sit down on the ground to get the background free and clear. Or sometimes I even shot from a lower angle to create a different perspective. In anticipation, I brought and used a good knee pad from home basically the whole day on my left knee. At my age, I would be hurting big time without....
. In a lot of cases, I used a monopod with chicken feet. Not that I don't trust the IBIS of the A7r II but somehow, the usage of monopod did let me slow down and compose the images better. Most of the time I used the flip screen to help me compose better, too. Just FYI.

Snow day, here. Ansolutely batshit weather. Still, got to take out the camera in inclement weather and see how it did. All taken with the Sony 28mm and the A7II.

The best way to describe the desert in central Arizona is "dusty." I spent the evening cleaning my A7RII and lenses after another trip out on the desert. These shots are all taken with the Leica WATE 16.18. 21

Here are 2 more images from Amsterdam in the evening. Too bad, the blue sky that was still there in the first image was long gone by the time of the second one was taken. Oh, well.

There you go again! - "you owe yourself a treat and try out the GM lens". You are killing me with your really fantastic Venice portraits, which are really serious wall hangers.
Anyway - back to my reality. This is the McLean Falls from the Catlins, South Island, NZ during the dry season. A7r + Leica WATE. (Not sure if I will ever get rid of this lens!). Had to do some heavy bracketing to get rid of the sunny spots.

Dave, based on my limited observation, it seems to me that you mostly do landscape. In that case the outlay for a mostly portrait lens may not be worth it. BTW, I forgot to mention in my previous post that your landscape images are awesome. I am not sure whether you are aware or not but there is a new Sony app that replaced the Sky HDR, it is called Digital Filter that maybe worth it for you to get. I am going for it, too.

When I was going through some older folders I found a bunch of photos from our trip to Sardinia (Italy) in 2015 that I meant to post but forgot. There are some from Poland too that I'll post some other day.
#5 and 6 are from C/Y 28/2.8 and the others from Minolta Rokkor 58/1.2, all on A7.

Thanks for the kind words Philippe! However, please keep in mind that after years of practice (I've had gazillions of pictures of back yard testing and weekend ventures) finally comes real opportunity to put what we know into practice. So please don't be intimidated. I started photography about 55 years ago. In our first year of marriage 40 years ago our downstairs bathroom could not be used because it was a darkroom. I'm now recently retired, enjoying the light at the end of the tunnel and am living my dream. What is great here at FM is that we can learn from each other what equipment, compositions and processing really works well and then when opportunity knocks we can take advantage of those lessons learned.

Yep - I had evolved from wildlife to landscape and right now my short telephoto primes (CV 90mm APO Lanthar LTM and Canon 135 3.5 LTM) work fine in that genera. What little portraits I do are family oriented and I do not post. However, your travel portraits are very intriguing - and who can not like the 85 1.4 isolation pop!
I really believe that some of your Venice pics are contest winners!
