Thank you, lumenspixel! Considering the smallish size and weight but yet, fairly fast aperture, the performance of that lens competes well with its bigger brother, the Art Series 14-24mm, albeit offering shorter focal length range on both ends. That’s what I meant with lowly. Stopped down for landscape purposes, that lens delivers in gobs…
I really enjoy your excellent tulip images there. I will be doing similar photography soon, too…
First red-eye-bomber flight since ages - nothing I would be missing. But like in the passt I carry a camera with me, and with the A7II paired with the Samyang 35mm F2.8 this is my X100V. Had the Fuji for almost a year but was rarely reaching for it (apart from the Almalfi series), and when I did, mostly used the EVF. If I had an A7c it would be even closer. Black and White in Camera with a slight adjustment to the sky, lifted the shadows a bit and some clarity in Lightroom.
Hitting my closest (wish it were closer) little waterfall, this time after a much larger rain event. Maybe a little more water than I'd like, but better than the more anemic flow I found the prior 2 visits.
It's been a long time since I've gotten my camera out. Nothing too exciting but it's good to get the rust out. Sony A7RIII and Sigma 105 Art. Yellow by Bill Dyke, on Flickr
