Patrick, I've been greatly enjoying every one of your monochrome images over the past few weeks. You have a keen eye, compositional excellence, and superb post-processing. Please keep 'em coming!

Another IR from a recent walk. 5DmkII-IR with the Nikkor 24mm f2.8 ais
Very nice, Jim! Thanks for carrying the IR torch through these winter months.
Today, I have a few monochrome photos of encased displays from a flight museum near Winnipeg, Manitoba in 2017, taken with the Fuji X-E2 and anonymous MFNG.

Early morning light with the NAI 24mm. Need something wider to capture these massive live oaks.
Plenty of choices for wider. Ignore the stitching advice, it's prone to errors, does not work too tell with wide angles, has distortion, and most importantly means you don't get to add another fine piece of Nikon to your collection.

I don't know what kind of vines were growing out of this dilapidated house, but they were definitely out of control.

Lens looks good and good luck with the land. I have a few acres I have been trying to get cleaned up, it can be a bear of a job.
Matt, SoCal is easier in that weeds and brush grow slowly, one clearing a year suffices, where I went wrong was in letting brush grow around he edges of the flat sections, until it became too much, got to keep it back every year as well. I have help, the same two brothers for the last 20 years.

Rafael,
What a lush bit of land you have! It is way more verdant than I experienced in my various travels around California. That looks like a ton of work, and since you own a great chipper - I think you should take many many breaks - have a bit of tea, coffee, or your favorite beverage with a snack at each break. What's the hurry?
Jim
Jim, no rush, I measure the outcome over years. Weeds and brush in San Diego grow slow, the turtle wins over the hare.

Thank you very much for your very kind words. I am really enjoying the 28mm and 55mm as travel manual focus lenses.
We had a family meet-up in London yesterday. Headed to the re-developed Battersea power station.
This was the view from the jetty looking east.
For my American friends - the US embassy is the building right of centre. It is the one with the 'bobbin' shapes on the exterior.

Impressive level of detail from the 55mm 1.2 Colin! and what an ugly embassy building, 1960s misled modernism?
Thanks Rafael. ISO 3200 and LR noise reduction works sooooo well from the Z6ii images.
Maybe the architects took their inspiration from a bygone era but the building is realtively new. Opened in 2017.
Could the cladding be some protective material/measure? You might know more about that than me?
Battersea power station. Proper bricks and mortar.
The old coal fuelled power station is now a large shopping mall and apartments.
The smoke stacks were taken down and re-built. One now has a viewing are on top.
Early bird gets the waterfall and avoids other people. Especially when the temp is in the 20s F
Took the Z8 with two old rangefinder lenses. Relatively light weight package to carry on the backpack strap. Only have the iPad with me and iOS still doesn’t support native Z8 Raw files. So just posting a couple here from Lightroom Mobile until I get back home on my main computer. Lightroom Mobile does not have the Z8 camera profiles from the latest firmware update so no Deep Monochrome profile support yet. I am almost ready to try another OS for field shooting, but that is for another thread
