The first image from a session this evening... Not necessarily the best, just the easiest/fastest one to edit. As always, I had the camera on Auto ISO but for whatever reasons, the setting jumped to the next one, ISO 50. Hence the slow shutter speed. I didn't realized that until a while and changed it back to Auto ISO. Thankfully, I used a monopod with "chicken feet" since the lens is heavy for this old man.... and that helped saved the day. Of course, the IBIS helped, too.
Beginner’s luck I never fail to ruin a shot at anything under 1/30s, IBIS or not

Sunlit rainclouds early in the morning and what a colorful morning it was like in that image but it was very temperamental. The weather changed rapidly from fairly sunny to a cloud burst seemingly in 15-20 minutes.
Another abandoned house with C/Y 28mm/2.8.
It was severely tilted and the floors weren't safe, so most of the time I had to stand in the door openings, which made composing and keeping straight difficult.
Rear side of Sony A7 sensor unit. The small seaweed looking stuff on it is the entire amount of Bayer dyes from one such unit. Snapped with a debayered Sony A7.
