Back to Bosque - I posted a similar image of the first one previously but it is included here to tell the story better. It shows the scene of a group of pintail ducks ducks that scoured the bottom of the pool for food at sunset.

Took a couple of hours today and re-visited the Wilson Carbide ruins in Gatineau Park. Camera didn't last long @ -19C with a wind chill of -30C.

John, Thank you.
@ Medicine Man 404 Thanks, I'm glad I was able to get at least one good shot. Got some great ideas on extending battery life in another thread, I want to go out and try some more.
Thank you both as your kind words; as fellow photographers your words inspire me to go out and try harder to get compelling images.
One more word of congratulation, Frostedflake! Well done, and well deserved!
Joshua, your pics never cease to amaze and delight me. And not only me, too...
Lovely work, Mathieu!

That is truly an awesome image and I realized the shooting conditions were tough, especially for the battery , in the cold. Of course, it doesn't take away from the image itself and it is more gear related, but the lower lefthand corner shows a severe vignetting effect. That effect is also noticeable in the righthand corners but for sure significantly less severe. I do know whether you have noticed this condition before and if not, there is a possibility that the lens hood didn't get mounted all the way until it clicks. It happened to me before, too. . And it can easily happen, especially when it is cold and you are shivering.... Just FYI.
Keep the photos coming Bob. I miss that lens already. I actually like the bokeh from it as well.

Nothing special from me but some test shots with the Zeiss Distagon 35/2ZE with MC-11 on the A7r3. I loved this lens (even more than the 35/1.4) when I shot Canon and love its 3d pop and color. It feels really nice on the A7r3 . . . kind of like the CV65/2 but thinner but not lighter.
Added bonus is that with the MC-11 I get aperture and shutter speed in exif since it's set in camera.Beautiful shots, Bob!
I used to have this lens too, shooting Canon. I had it along with the famous ZE 21/2.8. Small wonder -- I had a built-in desire for the Loxia 21 and 35! I still have its cousin, the Nikon ZF.2 35/2, and maybe someday there will be an inexpensive AF adapter to mount the Nikon AF lenses to Sony bodies.
Great rendering shown here -- thanks for also including some f/2 shots. Thanks Jim - I'm looking forward to using the lens a lot at F2 to show off it's character. Right now, I don't mind the extra weight and the feel in the hand is just very solid.
A few from GGOOLLDD, an electropop band from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Fun to see a band used to playing much larger venues play a tiny room - super intense and a ton of fun. Somewhat disappointed in the photos I got that night - she interacted with me quite a bit and I wasn't prepared for that. Had an incredible time, though! Blush is a pretty new music venue, really hoping they improve the lighting a bit - some of these are above ISO 25k, no NR.
All images taken with the Voigtlander 35mm f/1.7 Ultron VM or Canon FDn 24mm f/2 on Sony A7.

A very god eye. Yes there was vignetting but I think it was from the variable ND filter I was using as the hood was in the bag. Switching from the variable ND filter to solid filters as I never liked the occasional odd artifacting I am getting.
A 5 shot pano from the first 2 day hike I undertook in the mountains of Yunnan on the Tibetan Plateau.
After a few hours hiking in this relatively remote area you come across this minority tribe, Naxi, settlement. Overlooked by the Jade Dragon (so called for obvious reasons) Snow Mountain at 5,596 metres (18,360 ft) and the 5,396 metres (17,703 ft) Haba Snow Mountain which form steep 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) cliffs along the trek route.
