Can I just make an observation about the zf21 that I know has been observed but doesn't get its proper measure.
The DOF...is it my imagination, or is it insane (technical term). I havn't seen it in the Nikon 14-24 and it appears to be in combination with the contrast.
Good day everyone. I have been lurking around this forum post for a very long time and have decided to join in. I have three lenses now thanks mainly to this site, the 21mm, 35mm, and 50mm Makro. The images presented here are really quite magnificent - thank you all for sharing.
I made the following image this past September just as summer was changing over to fall. It was a perfectly calm evening, which kept the leaves absolutely still for the 30 seconds long exposure necessary in the fading light. I made two images using a 5DmkII with the 35mm Distagon and stitched them together using Photoshop creating this panorama.

The supernatural DOF of the 21 has been mentioned a number of times. I must say that I also admire the capability of short DOF of this lens in close-ups. Nice bokeh.
One Art - Wonderful set. I like the #1 and #3. B/W conversion of #3 is very effective.
Malkovic - I love the color from those two shots with ZF35. #2 has almost surreal presence. Great texture and color of moss.
jake- congrats on new acquisition. Lovely color and bokeh
Martynas - I thought it was 100 MP. I just love the way how the distant got slightly OOF. Love the B/W Doudy-DeBacker-Dunn House shot. Great snow detail on foreground, and yet the house still presents strong three dimensionality.
Collin - Welcome to the thread. Wonderful detail with the panorama. Compositionally, I might consider cropping out the 1/6 of the right end where you have your name ghosted, but that is just me.
Gary - Wonderful shots. I love how the sea shells in the center strongly distinguishes itself from the rest. Great color.
Michael, you do magic with warm colors & texture, the leaves are so beautiful!
Ruben, you bring back memories from quite a while ago, the weather hasn't ruined the warm colors at all. Love the cracked soil.
Malkovic: love your leaf in ice!
Joakim, very mysterious, the B&W conversion adds to that feeling, well seen.
Martynas: wonderful contrast between the warm tones of the house and the snow. Love the 1st cemetary image, the B&W conversion is maybe even more powerfull
Jon: congratulations on your steady hand!
alkanphel: more great work with the '100
Bob: bad weather in Brugge? Well, you found the most important part: the Halve Maan Brouwerij (Half Moon brewery), where they make "The Zeiss amongst the beers". Love that last one, the sepia tree, very well seen.
Hugo: just awesome, as usual
OneAnt: very vivid landscape, love the B&W reflections!
