Winter's about to crash this landscape. I feel like everything is just holding it's breath.

Excellent shots!

Great shots... I've been trying to decide whether or not to trade in my 18-135 for this lens. These shots changed the balance a little bit.

Every texture and post production result matches the subject perfectly.

Thanks Norm. With that trade, you'd be trading one type of versatility for another - a great focal length range for a truly great optic with only one focal length, but a very useful focal length that also can get down to 1:1 magnification if needed. I've owned a lot of zooms, but I still call my DA 35ltd my 'most versatile lens'

couple links you may find interesting re this lens:

---> an optical paragon
---> not so random excellence

Thanks! Exactly what I was striving for, gratifying to know you feel that way.
