Looking across Jordan Pond at the North and South Bubbles (at the far end of the Pond). A gentleman in an Old Time canoe can be seen a little off of the upper right third.
Tripod mounted A7r and Minolta CLE MC 40mm f2 M-Rokkor lens.
ISO 100, f11, 1/160 second.
Exposure Corrected +0.88 Stops.

At Jordan Pond, Mount Desert Island in Acadia National Park, Maine.
The cloud formation was wonderful at this location in New Mexico - taken with an adapted Leica-M 24mm f/1.4 Summilux ASPH on the original A7r. This file was labeled for processing for a few years but I didn’t get to do it until yesterday. This is the location of that movie “Contact” from 1997.

I really like/love the Leica-M 24mm f/1.4 Summilux ASPH. It's my wide-angle in my Leica M10 kit and adapts nicely to the A7rIV too. However, it was recently discontinued by Leica as I don't think it was a very popular lens with most going for the UWA 21mm. Can't help wondering if the discontinuation will help to increase value or not.
Very limited by my post processing abilities, but thought i would share this:
Sony A7Riv, Sony 400/2.8 @ 2.8, no teleconverted, tracking but not guided, about 30 x 15s exposures stacked, ISO 1600. Lagoon Nebula and surroundings, from Florida night of 7/19. This is 19% of the frame cropped.
A walk along the Canal outside Bath yesterday with Contax G 45 mm on my A7RIII - OOC jpegs with tiny tweaks. This is one of my all time favourite lenses.

Thank you for your comment, LB! I didn’t know that Leica discontinued that lens but the Leica brand somehow has some kind “prestige” that transcends time... well, to a certain degree . The price afterwards will depend now how many copies they actually produced that lens.

Contact was one of the best movies ever
I enjoyed the movie, too although I remembered the ending was kind of weird, I thought. It was years ago when I watched it. I believe, I still have the DVD of that movie. Yes, DVD and not VHS tape . But DVDs are long gone; I will have to check N******x to watch that movie again.

Family long weekend trip to Vegas, stayed at Delano with a decent view of the strip, so of course had to bring my camera along. Through a window so not perfect, but made it work. A7R3 & Tamron 28-75.
I stumbled upon this quaint scene on my sunrise hike recently. I hiked along the river after coming down from the mountain and there was this beautiful mansion perfectly nestled along the river bend. At the end of the property was this mill and nice waterfall. I believe I shot this with my Formatt Hitech 4 stop ND and Loxia 21mm lens.

Bought this lens for hiking, but since it just arrived I thought I'd try a quick portrait with it! DSC06557-Edit by Adam Watts, on Flickr
