Collection of "in the forest" fall settings that I love to be in, the quiet, the smells, the sights, and the atmosphere are just great. Sadly, that's over for another year now. All three shot with the 25-50; as you may have already surmised, this and the 75-150 were the only two MF lenses to make it on my limited fall trip thru PA and WV, and the 75-150 only got mounted once I think.

I did an airshow a few years back where it was icky skies in the morning, rain, and the reflections in the puddles were fantastic. Challenging, yes, but I liked what I got.
It seems that you are made of sterner stuff than I am, Laura. I do like taking reflection photos (as you can see below) but, along with the rain and icky skies, the bigger problem for me is the stygian darkness that greatly limits the potential even for reflection photos.
So, while I await more conducive weather conditions, here are a few photos from the Duncan car show in mid-July, all of which were taken with the 35 f/2 OC.
Hurricane Sandy was hitting the east coast, it was pouring down rain here, and I was heading to the cemetery anyhow. This thin yellow line was showing on the horizon, skies above me were as dark as could be. By the time I got to the cemetery and parked, this sunset started happening.

Almost 24 hour silence. 50mm f1.4 AI. The color in this patch was really this intense. The f1.4 allowed me to amplify it by blurring out the background to just some lovely color washes.
Back on the road and not getting to shoot that much (just brought the Z 26mm because it packs so well but never find myself using it. But getting a chance to review a couple random shots from the other morning with the 35mm O.
Hi Folks!
Penultimate day in NYC today so will have a series of images from my 50/2 H to share once I return home. Exciting news is that Serge and I managed to hook up for a beer in between our respective schedules. Thanks for making the effort Serge, it was great to meet you. I trust your current trip to Italy is as good as ours is in NYC.
