Here are a few pics of Les Baux-de-Provence, a truly spectacular site and one of the most beautiful villages in France.
All taken with Sony A7M3 & Nikon 28/2.8 ais

Thanks Alex. I've had a 35mm, 50mm-ish, 85mm, and 105mm problem for years. I got rid of the 105mm f4 ais micro, and 105mm f1.8 ais - only to buy the non-ai version from a toy stor with no caps even, but it was pristine. So, I'm at three versions now - down from 4. Here is the ais version that I hung onto.

I always appreciate a red boat, 85mm f2.0 AI.

Just like cars, the red ones are superior

Went out back to play with the 105mm f2.5 ais + TC-16a, and this little guy flew right up to me above his cake feeder. I'm not Dr Doolittle, but he had a lot to say. No fear of the camera either. About the size of a wine cork from 5-6 feet away. Second shot is a 100% crop.

Thanks for the likes on the aster and lupine shots. Just a walk in the neighborhood. I haven’t been shooting much lately. The little that I have shot can’t be posted here. It’s been with Pentax Takumar lenses that I had inherited from my dad years ago. Lately I’ve been using them with an adapter on the Z6.

I’ve repented my evil ways and returned to Nikkor optics, but I still might be led astray from time to time.

Using the 75-150 after the inspiration here. I got a wave from him right after this.

White boats not as superior as red ones, but their Skippers are. Nice of him.

The last batch of 5DmkIII-w-Nikkor-P 105mm f2.5 Non-ai, I replaced it with the 105mm f2.5 ais. It is smaller, brighter view, and easier to focus. On the 5D mark III I have to under expose quite a bit with both lenses?

Morton, agree on the wave, though I had to take my eye/hand down to wave as well. Seemed rude once I realized he was looking at me!

One more from the 75-150. This lens seems to fit my style, not sure why I don’t use it more often, realized my Lightroom doesn’t have much since late 2023!
