Wonderful photos, every one. I totally lost track of this thread for the last several weeks due to excessive travel for work. Time to peruse the last 50 or so pages with a glass of wine in hand. In the midst of work, I was able to take a few days off and visit friends in France who took me to Normandy to see several historic sites from WWII. I had never seen that area before. Both beautiful and moving.

Henryk,
that was the third time we met together so yes I think the synergy with Joshua is at a good level
Would be very nice visit your place, you and René with your fantastic images of the Alps lead me into temptation... unfortunately, at least till November this year, I'm not able to go far from home for personal reasons. Maybe in the future, who knows... Thank you for your consideration!
Joshua, I know... I'm a better driver than a good photographer
Has been a great tour and you were very welcome so hope in the future it will be another occasion to share a similar experience
Manuel, you are an excellent photographer and yes, your driving skill is excellent, too . I will be sending you an email before too long about the next adventure where everybody is welcomed to join.

Another one from the only foggy morning at Val d’Orcia...
Very nice shot, not overdone in PP, so looking really natural to my eye.
Actually I love the place , Kals at the Großglockner, quite much and intend to spend some time in about 10 days there.
Would really like to try to climb Austrias highest mountain then, when the conditions are suitable.
Hope to come back with some good pictures myself, also some night-skies hipefully.
Got myself a great sigma Art 14-24mm for my Nikon cameras and intend to use it for this application.
Would love to see more pictures from your visit there!

Maybe there is room for one more ?
Very nice shot Werner, Manuel and Joshua !
Ronny,
You get an invite if you tell me how you take those incredible macro-shots of yours — just kidding.
Let me make this offer: If I figure out the secret, will it be possible to go with you to Lofoten or Iceland?
Best to you and Nitro.

Went to the beach to shoot some surfing, but despite the reports of big surf, very little action. So instead I decided to test out the new 24-105 and just do landscapes. All shots handheld. Was pleasantly surprised to get a high % of keepers down to 1/5s as I wanted to blur the water.
Thank you very much Michael! Perhaps I should have used my Lensbaby Burnside 35 though. For some reason, whenever I post similar sets from both it and a normal lens I always get more likes on the one taken with Burnside. Very surprising, but kind of nice since I love using it.
