Joshua -- You have a magical way about you when eliciting the cooperation of people of all lands. Always great people shots!
Bob -- Great patience, waiting for the ice to break. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets on your lake.
Ronny -- How do you keep pulling these Iceland rabbits out of your hat? Always stunning and other-worldly.

Another early morning springtime shot from the Cispus River valley.
2-shot pano, Loxia 35.
Jim, I always try to ask politely. In general, if you ask politely and genuinely, people oblige. Women, especially within a certain age group actually find it flattering. At my age, they believe that I am harmless. Little that they know.... just kidding 😂. Thank you very much for the compliment!
Your images are not only technically great but I find them fascinating. Thank you for sharing them....

More fiddling with the 100 STF today. A pretty lady and a tree....
With apologies to Samuli whose great tree shots I admire and who will doubtless hate the bokeh...

not hating, but boke is rougher on 2nd one than I would have assumed for "boke lens". Based on what I have learned 85GM, I'm pretty impressed what Sony can do when they focus to boke on lens design.

Tree was pretty big so had to be farther from it which means the apodization filter has less effect. Some like its effect, some don't. Which bokeh here do you like better? First is GM 85 at 1.8, second is STF 100:

On a image like this where there just is focus plane and blurred background I might even prefer GM 85; the STF 100 looks somehow unnatural on that background. I can see how STF could look great when your background is simple e.g. beach, sea and sky as STF would make the background very simple/abstract, but still somehow recognizeable.
If I would have STF I would be looking for backgrounds, which look like they belong to subject/support the composition, as very easily one gets this look where subject looks like glued on top of some other background. It would be also interesting to see how apodization filter softens transition zone.

Was out doing some lens testing this morning. Am really impressed with the Batis 135. It is really well corrected and sharp. Anyway, the hummers had found the feeder and I thought I would try a quick grab shot. This is a HEAVY crop with the 135, but it is sharp right to 100%. Obviously, not ideal having to crop so heavily, but what the heck....
