Thank you, Bobu!
They were taken at Tokyo. The 1st image was at Shibuya, near the scramble crossing.

Uzay - love both of them. Nice sense of depth to them. You controlled the DR well.
Great shot Liutenant Z.
Like both shots zhangue. Would have preferred #2 at the child's eye level.
Super shot Picture This. Nicely processed.
Cheers 3D.Doug!
Love the series reza187.

zhangyue, Liutenant Z, Skumar25, Picture This, thank you!
@zhangyue, i processed them in lightroom.
for pic no. 1, i took the picture at dusk, and i only did a little pp. i adjusted the fill light and blacks slider to enhance the contrast, and put a bit bluish tint with split toning.
for pic no. 3, i lowered the saturation, and in hsl panel i turned all color saturation slider all way down except orange. finally i played with split toning to get the look i want.
hope it helps

Great work everyone, enjoyed the tree and ice.
Not sure if I prefer the HDR version with the crazy lens flare or the normal version. Both taken in Switzerland by the ample farmland.
Although to be honest, not sure if either are all that great.

Jochen, great landscape shot with the 21.
Lieutenant, I like the last one...beautiful color.
Reza, the first series is awesome. I really like how you processed them. Thanks for the tip. The second image in the second series is also excellent. Could you share the processing for that too?
Fly, I prefer the first image. The orange lens flare kind of nuked the second one.

frozen fountain is cool, great processing. ok it's cold. 
good images Reza. I like the lighting subtleties of 2 and the richness of 3.
Fly, I prefer the HDR, but I think that the sun location didn't help you here other than lighting the fog and I think I'd turn the brightness of the whole image down, and try recovery a bit.

Two opposite opinions
Image brightness is something that's been biting me lately. I hope I'm not getting early onset cataracts or something.
Either way, the sun actually adds to the composition for me. It really expresses the mood of the setting to me.
Another one from Iceland with A850 + 21mm ZF.2 F2.8. Remarkably, not an HDR.

I like the shot Fly. It would have been interesting with a 4 X 6 soft edged variable ND filter (50%) excuse I forgot the tech terms right now. Something to tone down upper image some, and leave strength and detail of bottom. But you are right, the contrast is interesting. nice image though.

I want to thank everybody for your nice comments on my previous post. Lots of great images again. Luka - your autumn shots just shines! Tsy - great street image, love shiny pavement. Lieutenant - very moody BW street image. Francesco - awesome light and mood. Great contrast in first one with sky and street light, and lovely focus on lighten up scene in second one! Jim - I like all of your shots and you really show class and skill with camera. Lars - top class images and I love honesty in them. Jochenb - great depth and nice POV. Smridevan - just awesome street images with great clarity and colors! Skumar - great images, especially the first one! rji2goleez - stunning night shots! zhangyue - lovely autumn images with some great color and composition! I also like the inside shot of you family (?). Jochen - stunning image! Uzay - those bridge shots are just awesome, such a detail, rich colors, interesting light and perfect composition. Rexx - that's a nice lunch! Lieutenant - great evening light and superb mood you captured. Picture this - nice HDR image, very cool place. Reza - just superb street images, love your PP really adds to the mood. FlyPenFly - I agree, you really well captured the mood and feel. I like the light and I like your POV and detail.
And here are some more of Still Lifes I have been shooting lately (all shot with 5D MKII & Zeiss 100mm MP):

Thank you for share, I never play split toning, will investigate it. Like your 2nd shot as well. A school/university somewhere?

Diploneis:
All your post of 100Mp are wonderful to look at. For a moment I thought they are like paintings. But look at those detail and texture especially the silver pot and plate and fruit.

zhangyue, Martynas - thank you!
Wonderful shots. Once again, I am not keeping up with the pace lately.
Lars - Your fall shots are beautiful. Can't get enough of them. 35 1.4 really shines in your hand. The leaf shot from few pages back and the berry shot are my favorite. Great use of bokeh.
Lientenant - I really like the old man on bench with cell phone. Not only it is well shot, but the b/w nostalgia juxtaposed to new technology, very smart. Also really enjoy the closeups from frozen fountain series. Stunning capture.
Jochen B - The apartment building behind beach shot is brilliant. Mound on the beach makes the shot really sing. Human scale versus inhuman scale. I can just feel the size of this building complex. By the way, I can't detect much of any distortion. Did you correct any ? Judging from pictures here in this forum, I always felt 35 1.4 has much less distortion compare to f2 version. This shot, if it was not corrected, is a superb proof.
Smridevan - I enjoy your series from Tweed Ride. I feel like I was there through your shots. Very interesting contrast of old and new. #2 from the first set especially caught my eyes.
SKumar25 - Color and tone of the mannequins is strong. I like it.
Jim - Nice capture of a beautiful vintage car. Love the color contrast of the car and its wheels.
Bob - So great to see your work again. Great night shots. #1 is really wonderful with different tone of lights painting the space.
zhangyue - Great capture of fall color. White birch and Japanese maple leaves shots are very beautiful. Nice portraits too.
Uzay - So nice to see your work again ! Great color and detail. #2 is superb!
rexx714 - nice sandwich ! Makes me hungry.
Picture THis! - That is the mosaic Mr Chambers uses for all his lens test from Stanford ? Very nice sky.
reza187 - Very nice shots from Tokyo. #2 stirs up my nostalgia, the Japanese curry house !! Love the color of #1 and also the lack there of on #3. Then the b/w feet shot from the second series was really strong. Great capture.
FlyPen - First I thought I preferred the HDR version, but more I look at them, more I like the original version. Yes it shows the crazy flare and all, but to me, that also is giving the overall dreamy painting like quality to the pic. I now vote for the original shot. Really nice color, contrast, and tonality, I enjoy it. The texture of hill is much more interesting on the original too.
Martynas - I really enjoy your recent still life explosions. Each subsequent shot add more element to the scene. I was waiting for the uncontrolled explosion with the big piece of meat and cigarette and what not, ha ha
( yes I am joking ) Love your sensitivity, clearly carefully planned out beautifully crafted work. Thank you.

I was meandering the Ramble portion of the Central Park, NY which seems officially 'closed' ( gate was very confusing) , the area was badly damaged from the snow storm few weeks back.
