Thank you all for sharing your amazing images. What a treat! I haven't posted anything for a while as I have been shooting with my Nikon DSLRs for birds and stuff lately. Anyway, here are a few shots with the new to me Sony 24-70mm GM.

No, not even a single frog out there..... Ronny? He is in charge of frogs. Did you notice that the frogs he photographed looked happy and fat while the insects he photographed looked scared ?
Wonderful shots, all. I really miss this thread when work gets in the way.
Every once in a while, I grab a bunch of similar focal length lenses from my cabinet and shoot roughly the same subject to compare them. This exercise is often used to convince me (or my wife) that I still need to hang onto *all* of them. This round - as many others have been - involved shooting out of focus shots to emulate what the background could look like with a subject in the foreground (best case, any way). All shots are wide open for the particular lens and focus plane was set either at MFD (which varied a bit) or ~3 feet, if the lens focused shorter than 3 feet. The idea was to as much as possible have shots be equivalent condition.
