That Loxia color and clarity is splendid.

Ha-ha! Thanks Dave!
I hope you don't mind -- I went back and lightened the shot just a little and boosted Clarity and increased Vignette a touch for this 3-shot pano. The Loxia 50 seems very malleable in PP for a range of "looks", just like the 35mm.
FE 55/1.8, f6.3 These Spitian women were ideal subjects because they were dog-tired and very relaxed for close up work. Here, several are carrying very heavy bags of dirt in the hot sun to about 30 guys who were furiously building a house just out of sight. All are strong as oxes, no overweight people anywhere. Right now they can all relax for months, this scene is likely under snow. It's the kind of highly detailed travel image that the very sharp 55mm is well-suited for.
These two pictures are cross-posted from the 26-page C-Sonnar! thread. Yesterday's photo prompted me to look again at other pictures I made that day with the C-Sonnar 50/1.5 ZM. I've been looking everywhere for a lens to complement the Planar G 45/2 and Zony FE 55/1.8 and perhaps it's been sitting quietly in the dry cabinet, ignored, all this time.
Ice skating in the last rays of sun before mørketida, the dark season, sets in. The sun now only touches the horizon at noon and the blue hour lasts all day:
A few more with the A7ii and Mitakon 50mm f0.95. Really loving this lens - sharp even at 0.95 and great bokeh for a super-fast 50. I've seen comparisons between the Mitakon vs Leica Noctilux 0.95 and f/1, and the Mitakon compared very favorably, in some situations even better, than the Noct's.
Manhattan Bridge reflection in Jane's Carousel, Brooklyn Bridge Park. f/0.95
Electrical conduit. The text on the junction box (point of focus) is tack sharp at f/0.95.
Appalachian Chair. Beach volleyball courts, Brooklyn Bridge Park. Focus on the front of the arm rests. f/0.95
The second one was taken at the Badlands salt flat at sunset. Focus staked and focal length blend with 12mm foreground and 24mm mountain range. A7RII with FE 12-24 G at f/8
This thread moves fast... been playing with my Kolari UT A7 since getting back from my trip. Don't feel like I"m getting along well with it, but enjoy using it, so I'll continue on...
Mostly with the Super Tak 55/1.8. The rainbow was the ST 135/2.5.
And a few more from this morning, with the Super Tak 35/3.5. The more I look, I think it's more sloppy technique frankly. IBIS has likely made me lazy.
