A few shots from a recent visit to Basel a couple of weeks ago. The last one is a selfie of myself and my wife -- a selfie with a little help.
We have been to Switzerland several times and each time enjoy it more.

Is it just me that thinks many of the people sharing photos here, share them with too high resolution?
I use a MacBook Pro Retina (2560 x 1600) but still pretty much all images are bigger than the screen.
That Retina makes your good laptop to act like ultra crappy cheapo laptop. Basically when you browse internet you have 1280x800 resolution, which is the level of 300EUR most crappies of laptop you can buy from stores. Outside Apple people majority is using 1080p display (1920x1080) or larger (e.g. I use 2560x1600 real pixel display, no Retina crap). Your pictures are quite small considering the "norm" on the forum on "norm" display.
Typically people post here 1280px wide, which makes landscape orientation photo to be 1280x853, which won't fit into 300EUR ultra crappy laptop display (or Retina laptop) even when there is no other webpage visible and using fullscreen-mode. Starting from 4K Retina migth be useful, I fail to see any usage of such technology below 4K.

Jordan, you have sold me on the 28+21 converter. For a very occasional wide angle shooter like myself, it looks perfect. Love the images and quality you have shown with it.
