Wow, what a fantastic headdress. Just kidding. But it sure blends in with the roses in the background. Nice soft lighting.
Dennis, it was a headdress alright. Thank you!

This image was one of the last images I took during my Iceland adventure. The waves crashing the cliffs in Anrarstapi at midnight.

I like how the waves "climbed" up the rocks, Bob. Wondering what that half circle thing near the top on the cliff was?

That half circle thing is from a bird flying during the exposure. I should probably crop it out but decided for now to leave it.

Sigma 50 Art was at first quite disappointment, boke was very harsh on most photos. After few times shooting with it I found out that nature photos can be rendered pleasantly with decent boke as long as I tame down harshness with polarizer. Example with polarizer and without polarizer, and 2nd pair; with polarizer and without polarizer.
However I'm not in deeply love with this lens, it's just one-trick pony; boke does not improve or change any way when closing down aperture, blur circles just get smaller, boke character and issues stays the same. Also focus plane contrast compared to boke contrast does not increase when closing down. So more or less it makes no sense to ever close down the lens. But the one-trick it does, it does pretty well, as focus plane is strong enough for most of my shooting (people whom spend their nights and days pixel peeping may feel different...).
Well maybe two-trick pony, it's pretty OK for landscapes, but it's not landscape lens size or weight. Also personally for landscapes I prefer rendering style of any Planar 50 from Contax (C/Y, G, N-mounts) or Carl Zeiss (ZM 2/50, ZE 1.4/50, Sony Alpha Mount 1.4/50 or Loxia 2/50) closed down f/6.3-11 for landscapes.

Good thing you decided to take this last shot. It’s got so many things working so well in it. One of the best images I’ve seen here. Congrats Bob!

Here are a few from the Master of Nets garden in Suzhou, just northwest of Shanghai. Suzhou is a lovely city and I very much enjoyed this lovely garden there. It is as distinctive for its architecture as for the flora.

I'm back from another trip to the Sleeping Bear Dunes area in N. Michigan, and have just started to process images. I've not been there at this time of year before, and found a wealth of good subject matter. I'm not sure how I'm going to catch up with 20+ pages of new images in this thread, but I'll start off by adding an infrared shot from my trip.
This image was taken within the National Lakeshore - a row of cottonwood trees atop one of the dunes. I used a Sony A7R (850nm infrared conversion) with Sony 12-24/4 at 12mm.
