we can see it fine. what service are you using?
Russia is currently blocking the internet in many areas, and websites in the .com zone are working very poorly.
I used to post photos on imgbb.com, but I haven't been able to access it for the past few days. I don't know why. Maybe they have restrictions for Russia, maybe not. I'm currently trying Russian hosting, imgfoto.host.
oh snaps. that's not what i was expecting at all. my upload and sell expires very soon so i was wondering what the best way to imbed images was without links and was open to new options

When I was in China, no google, no facebook, no youtube, no X, not even Flickr, and no Dropbox. I could have access to these sites via my cell phone because I was using international roaming.
You write that the Nokton 1.4 is always better than the Skopar 3.5. Is this also true on cameras like the Nikon Z, or just on the M system? I have the Skopar 3.5, and it's exceptionally good in the corners on a Canon R5. Now I don't know if the Nokton will be as good as the 3.5 on the Canon R5, or if it might be worse. The Skopar is an exceptionally well-designed lens and works well on cameras other than the M and SL systems.

The Voigtlander 21mm f/1.4 Nokton is one lens I genuinely regret selling. It delivered fantastic images and was incredibly useful for travel. I traded it for the 21mm f/3.5 Color Skopar (size/weight trade-off) and I am happy with that lens, but the f/1.4 version is a very different beast.
I will take this to be a cautionary tale. Thanks! I will keep my Nokton 21/1,4!
I like the size and heft; a lens can be a convenient add-on accessory grip.
Most often i prefer the XPAN ratio for landscape shots with the Voigtländer 21/1.4.
here an example taken in France, the view from the Monts du Lyonnais in the direction of the alps.
