Beautiful Huss. Sover Wong was a good read too. My long ago retired camera repair guy was named George. George had a thick German accent, and his shop was full of everything a mad scientist would need to test or repair any mechanical camera. The only issue was - did George feel like doing the repair, He had to think it was worth it, or he would just shove it back to the customer, I went to him for decades.
There was a camera repair shop near Baltimore run by an older gentleman from eastern Europe. I went there several times and got some cameras repaired. He was good. But one time I looked online a few years ago and the shop was closed permanently.
Zf and Nikkor-N 5cm f/1.1 with a view of Main Street going down towards the Patapsco River in Old Ellicott City. This is about 15-20 minutes drive south of Baltimore.
Barb did a final harvest of the garden a few days ago. It was a bowl of various shades of green, and touches of yellow. Last night I passed the bowl on the way to bed when I noticed it had turned into a glorious collection of color, So, two lenses and a couple minutes later I got these. All are focus stacks - 3-8 or 9 images each

Looks yummy! Um, are those Jimmy Nardello peppers, by any chance (or by design)? My sweetie raises J.N. peppers which are supposed to be sweet. Most are but every so often one comes out incredibly unbelievably hot.
Nice pics!
Peter Piper took a pic of pickled peppers.
Naw, it doesn't have the correct rhyhtm that way.

There were Banana, Habanero, Jalapeno, and I think one other - Salerno? . We still have a bowl of dried Cayenne from last year - such a pretty plant when they have many dozens of deep red peppers on them. They looked like four little decorated Christmas trees. I have Cayenne at least once a day. Usually sprinkled on my toast. It opens up my sinuses and clears my head. The ones we grow have I fruity flavor as well as the heat - store bought, usually just the heat.
We purchased "Sweetie drop peppers" from an online farm once, but the seeds came very late for planting, and none survived after germination. They are teardrop shaped, and pickled in a sweetened vinegar - great on salads.
