I used my favorite lens, the 24mm f/3.5 PC-E that I rarely dismount.
This focal length is not a cure for a wide uninteresting view but it helps me consider the 3D aspects of a scene.
I did notice a curious problem when house hunting, though, that you should think about. When I revisited prospects after looking at my photos, I was always surprised at how much smaller the physical rooms were.
So, for many interiors, it tends to exaggerate size and spaciousness.
I see Bombay Sapphire being advertised - it is brewed 10 miles down the road from me.
Are you on the move Jay?
One last IR monochrome shot from my walk along the Chauga River. Something about hearing and being by moving water (must be the negative ions). Could have stayed there all day. IF it wouldn't have been 90 some degrees with 90% humidity
Definitely going to do a return trip there in the fall.
Same lens - Nikkor 2.8cm/3.5 in Leica thread mount
Why not just lay in the steam to cool off, jump out for awhile, repeat. Wonderful shot and angle btw.

I visited a Lotus pond and decided to try to capture the various stages of a Yellow Lotus's life. Please forgive me for posting so many photos in one post.

This is soooo good. Thanks for perspiring to bring us this gem.
I too am enjoying the increased pace of the thread.
We have had some big ass planes like these flying into Cairns recently and I've seen one or two on approach as I've been riding home the other way. Crazy how they look like they are almost stopped in the sky compared to an inbound passenger jet !

Very much enjoying all postings, thanks for sharing and including lens info.
These are from Cabrillo National Monument towards Coronado island and downtown San Diego. Very strong blue humidity haze and hot afternoon messing with sharpness and color balance.

Took a day trip to Hunting Island State Park in Murrell’s Inlet SC. Supposed to be a good wild life area, and we did see a successful Osprey (bird) hunt but wasn’t quick enough for a shot. The Atalaya Castle was more interesting for me though, fun old architecture. Lots of shots to still review.
All with the 50-135.
Love the first one Matt, I can never get them right. One of the things I love about where I live is the number of Ospreys etc. usually nesting on top of the phone towers, there's one right outside my local mall. I watched a White Bellied Sea Eagle fly by the other day as I was at the lights on my bike on the way to work. There's a wetlands nearby but whatever it was was huge.

I love this one, Jay. Think a PC Nikkor was used, if so which one? I'm suddenly more curious about PC Nikkors after the build we are doing at home. Can never take pictures I'm happy with unless I back so far away I lose interest.
He beat me to it as I scrolled down the page but everyone else was thinking "it's the 24/3.5, he NEVER takes it off!"
