Thanks Jim, most kind of you ...I couldn't help but notice that you and the Mrs are having a change of scene (Mama Falls) excellent work still as usual.
Whether PC or Mac you always squeeze the very best PP out of your Loxias - I always regretted selling my 25mm Loxia, a most underrated lens for sure that I see you keep on putting to good use, I'm jealous
BTW my apologies for keep posting straight after you in the evening....I like to upload my snaps just before hiting the sack.

It's an older image (reworked) but not shown before on FM - Pseudo IR using (NIK) Silver Efex Pro 2 using their coloured digital sliding filters.
No worries, Barry! We are about 8 hours apart, so posting opportunities will probably always favor a certain sequencing.
I've been fortunate to pick up all my Loxia's from people like you who loved them previously, so I'm very grateful for the opportunities to own these great lenses at affordable prices.
Here are a couple more from our recent outing to Hoh Rainforest.

Slowly editing these Singapore pictures, these are all from the zoo. A1+135. This is the type of scenario where I fantasise about a 70-200ii, but not sure the results would be as dreamy.
These are great! You inspire me to use my 135 at a zoo.
An older file, captured using a lens I sold already but never posted previously. I actually loved the lens and I started questioning myself why I actually sold the lens , Oh, well, life goes on…
Shot with the 100-400 GM. I had originally intended to crop in tight on the bee, but decided I preferred the look of all the surrounding flowers framing him.
Looking at an American White Ibis.
Cropped mostly from left and right and a little from the top; tripod mounted 200-600mm G set to 600mm and A7rIII; silent shutter.
ISO 100, f6.3, 1/320 second.
Exposure Corrected +0.35 Stops.

Green Anole - Sony A7RIv , Zeiss Jena Biotar 58mm F2
What a bokeh! Truly unique lens (we all understand that Helios is exact copy of Zeiss Jena Biotal; moreover, first Helioses were produced on repatriated Zeiss machines). I have Zeiss Biotar 58/2 and one early copy of Helios 58/2 - they are 100% the same.
Beautiful lens!

What is in there?... or "lessons of framing from my daughter")))))
