Drop dead gorgeous Chin! You may not have enjoyed the weather but it sure didn't hurt your shooting. This is amazing, but then I'm not surprised. As I've said often, you have a great eye for composition and this lens certainly does not disappoint. WOW!
Dustin, great shots! Those images have Reala written all over them... I just sold my Nikon F5 a couple weeks ago (I'll always miss it), but I too shot landscape in the NW with it and when I wasn't using Velvia, I always shot Reala. I love what it does to greens (even if it's not necessarily realistic... it's wonderful). Where was the first shot taken? It's fantastic!

Making ... soba?
Right on the spot! One thing I learned from that experience is that it's better to leave making soba to the professionals.
