Bessa R, Nippon Kogaku 5cm f2 HC LTM lens, Fuji Natura 1600 film. A lot of old timers there, and many noticed and appreciated the film gear I was toting around.

From yesterday in San Francisco to celebrate Sue's birthday. She was very pleased with the day and with everything that led up to it... We really celebrated the day.
This with the 55 f/1.2 S.C. AI, my walk around lens... looking beyond the World War II vintage buildings of Fort Mason toward the relic that was once Alcatraz federal penitentiary.
Looking through the window of Greens Restaurant beyond our table and toward the Golden Gate bridge. Although it was raining as we drove to San Francisco, when we arrived there was sun on these sailboats. We had a few hours without rain. It was lovely.

Luka, very interesting framing of what looks like a parking structure.
Thank you Samy,
I was drawn to the font, and the structure. It stood out almost as a graphic element. Building itself is nothing spectacular, a run-down structure that has not been treated well for too long, just like any other buildings in NY City. On the other hand, that is what is making that city. I imagine that may be similar in Baltimore.
And, here is a bit more on the 'pretty' side. New York Municipal building where many New Yorkers get married ( officially). It is not my particular favorite, but I am still testing out 55 micro for 'near infinity' shots.
i get the impression that Sue's quite fond of you!
Lovely picture of a lovely lady.
We met in a classroom in graduate school in September, 1985. Over the years of school we became very good friends but she was not interested in more than friendship... until the year after we graduated... this is what we looked like then.
We eventually got serious about our relationship, enough so we were married... which lasted about six years. It turns out we are much better at being friends than being husband and wife. We now consider ourselves companions for life. I did use the lines "for better, for worse, in sickness and in health, for as long as we both should live" in a letter I gave her on her birthday, but not because I want us to tie the knot again. Rather, the words really say the truth about what we're doing... a lifelong commitment. I know this the only relationship I want.

Oh, if I get what you are getting, I won't have any issue with 3.5/ 55 Micro at far distance. I don't know whether it is the lens, shooter, or both
