Trioplan 100 2.8 capturing attention of the forum, and the lens deserves it!
Truly artistic lens with iconic bubbly bokeh at 2,8-4 and beatifull silky seascapes at 8-11.
It would be just a bit of exaggeration to say that Trioplan for artists-photographers is very much like Fender Rhodes for rock and jazz pianists.
An iconic piece of rock n' roll history, the Fender Rhodes Piano Bass is legendary. Used by many famous artists including Led Zeppelin, Herbie Hancock, Radiohead, Ray Charles, The Doors etc. it truly belongs to the rock hall of fame.
According to Ray Manzarek, pianist of The Doors and absolute classic of true rock titans, "If Mr. Rhodes hadn't created the keyboard bass, the Doors would never have existed."
Once my friend, jazz pianist with packed concert halls, asked me for help to purchase "Manzarek" (same year of production, colours, sound) Fender Rhodes Piano Bass in one of criminal Turkish areas of Nicosia in CASH deal. Such Rhodes is rear jem and I think that it was stolen somewhere in Europe (piano was in immaculate condition for peanuts price but cash only). The Buyer was very nervous for his cash, The Seller was very nervous for police, very few criminal-looking people in the foreseeable area were very nervous because they were on crystal meth...
Only your humble servant was absolutely happy - God presented me the opportunity to do the photo of all-time-classic Fender Rhodes by all-time-classic Trioplan 100 2,8 in such rock'n'roll conditions!))))
P.S. The adrenaline reflections of good old times might have put me a bit high, but images of @mudlake and Joshua @AGeoJO above are exceptional!

The Afterparty at Home. This is not on Trioplan but on some kind of 24mm old manual lens which I don't remember because we were already drunk.)

At Piazza del Duomo (Pisa's Cathedral Square), Pisa, Italy.
We woke up this morning to "freezing rain" covering all outdoor surfaces. My neighbor and my wife are going to try to drive to the YMCA this morning for workout -- we'll see how that goes getting the truck out of the driveway!! I may have photos of a vehicle slid into the creek.
Ho, ho, ho!

@Gunzorro - I'll trade your sleet for our -10F with 30 MPH winds!
Happy Holidays everyone! I'll be content to continue my indoor exploration of water drop photography.
"Got Milk?" I used milk instead of water. Being more viscous than water, these images take on a different look. All shot with A1 and Laowa 90/2.8 dreamer macro.
