Thanks Peter. A very interesting story about the Graaff's Pool too. I just love stuff like that, looking up the history of a place or building that I have visited and finding out more about it. A wall built to shield the world from the sight of a disabled person swimming that turned into a wall for naturist gay men to hide behind while swimming/sunbathing !
I watched the Beatles doco "Get Back" yesterday and today. Did we establish the other lens being used in addition to the 105/2.5 ? Looked like the NKJ 200Q to me, scalloped focus ring and shiny silver end?
Interesting that I was born in Wavertree in Liverpool, my mum was born and raised a couple of streets away from Paul McCartney and John Lennon's childhood home on Menlove Avenue, nearby is Strawberry Field. Always use to stop off at the Chinese Fish and Chip Shop on Penny Lane for the best Ham Fried Rice in a silver tray.
Here's the map of where the Fab 4 were born/childhood homes, my Mum's childhood home, Penny Lane, Strawberry Field and my birthplace nearby. Mum was born in the early 1940's, same as the Beatles (John 1940, Paul 1942, George 1943, Ringo 1940)
A 9 shot pano (3x3 landscape shots) from last night
Brisbane Museum/City Hall. Will definitely be going back when the Christmas Tree etc have gone. Try and get everything exactly straight/square.
Really annoying, even taking multiple frames for each of the shots (so the people wouldn't show up), there was a kid busking on violin so people were standing still for ages. He was very good though to be fair.
Using a Joby Gorillapod 5K, no ball head which wasn't ideal. Z6ii + ftz + 28/2ais, ISO100, 6 secs, f11.

I can get it on March 8th. I can get the shingles second shot March 9th. I still need my flu shot, too, hoping to do that one this week, maybe...
Has the waiting period gone down there? It has been reduced from 6mths after your 2nd shot to 4mths for the booster jab here.
Which means I can get my booster now instead of 25th Feb
Another of the Town Hall, this time from a different angle for the tree, just 2 landscape shots on top of each other = 1:1 square format.
As discussed previously, I'm now shooting Raw+jpeg, using a mono Picture Control so that I'm seeing mono in the EVF, getting a mono jpeg and the original colour RAW file too.
