Samuli you are reaching levels where very few can reach. This last bunch of images is among the very best i have seen in these forum, in processing, quality of light and composition.
Thank you for sharing such awesome group of captures

Thanks for showing the bigger size - the infocus leaves look just as I imagined. Hopefully I'll find somewhere tree(s) which are planar underneath
Philippe, like you say - 28mm looks quite natural for these shots. It's hard field of view to master, at least for me, on nature it's slightly easier but on urban environment I find 28 quite difficult.

Samuli
Or you could find a very big tree and shoot from below with the 21 with it's very large DOF?
Your first post:
I liked the last one best. Great 3D even everything inside DOF on #4.
I really would like the 1st one but center horizon makes the image unbalanced, sadly it seems that the is some human made ugly stuff (head of flagpole or something is visible -> I would assume there is something else as well) on bottom right corner so you could not compose this one according to rule of thirds.
And the 2nd:
Last one is masterpiece, really unique idea for photo. The light on right balances light on left behind the hill. Excellent!

And in theme of Denoir 2nd post; backlight photos:
Ireland - Co. Laois 01 - Carl Zeiss Planar T* 1.4/50 @ f/11, 1/160s, ISO 100:
Ireland - Co. Laois 02 - Carl Zeiss Makro-Planar T* 2/100 @ f/11, 1/200s, ISO 100:
Ireland - Co. Offaly 01 - Carl Zeiss Makro-Planar T* 2/100 @ f/5.6, 1/60s, ISO 100:
I took the 50 Planar with me as my only lens on a little trip to middle-northern Sweden this weekend. I really liked the idea of restricting myself to a lens that doesn't do anything "spectacular".
Well, nothing short of spectacular, Makten! I especially like the cat (nice perspective) and #3. I'm not crazy about the flower shot: not enough detail in the whites and the pine needles don't fit in there imo.
Incredible shots from the others too. There's great 3D in that forest shot (#2 of first post) of Denoir's.
Tripod + 2s timer if I recall correctly.
