Very nice pictures.
How do you find the sigma against the sun? Does it do the same ring flares as the Sony?
The Sigma 14-24 is very good against flare. Can produce a few small ghosts in certain situations, but none in others. Contrast is strong regardless. It's an exceptional lens.

Tried only for a few moments in the evening on loan from Joshua, it seemed immediately of the highest quality... unfortunately not enough to fully evaluate the potential, strangely Joshua wanted it back
Riomaggiore lights (Cinque Terre) at blue hour together Joshua.
First image taken with my second copy of Minolta MD 35-70 Macro. I have to say this copy is better than the first one I've sold two years ago... better sunstars and better resolution at 35mm. I'm not sure it's relevant but the serial number of the first model was 1059850 while the second one is 8014531 therefore, probably, more recent. Indeed, the general condition of the latter lens is also very good.
Second image taken with the super sharp Zony 55.
Vexilla regis prodeunt.....and so is with the ,(very), early spring this year...
The early spring has recently exploded 6 weeks ago ike never before and mostly by flowering cornucopia. For the first time in my life I could see the flowering of some rare species of trees, shrubs and flowers from North Africa, the Americas,Asia and Europe,that I have never seen before at this time of the year. A beautiful,unique mystery. :-)
Many of those fragile and very delicate early spring flowers has a strong nature,that I can not show in my pictures,as their shy beauty is difficult to disclose.

Rhododendron dahuricum pleases me very often by scanty flowering in November or March.Didn't let me down this time again...:-)))
The bush I saw flowering in the early spring for the first time in my life.Doesn't look magnificent,but blooms it the very archaic (philogenetically) way.Astonishing experience for a deep-in-the-hearth-botanist like me :-)
And the rest - seemingly ordinary, but unusually flowering this time:

Thank you Gunzorro - your early spring photos look very interesting to me, as they show familiar somehow early spring landscapes of the Northern Hemisphere.
BTW: I enjoy very much your calm, full of sunny light, autumn pictures of houses in the suburbs

E bellissimo,che hai mostrato queste foto di Cinqueterre, Manuel!
L'ultima volta che Io fatto le foto lì, quasi nello stesso posto,era con Mamiya 7 e l'obiettivo Sekor 65/4 sulla diapositiva Fuji Velvia. Ricordo molto bene questi momenti.
