End of day at 8h30 PM on July 14, not far from my house. Pentax K3 III + HD DA 16-85 mm ED WR, 16 mm FL and f/8. First sunset of the year 2022. Super sharp and contrasty zoom lens.

Pretty sunset. Like those colors and cloud highlights. You may need to get commissions for showing off this lens.

That 16-85 lens continues to amaze me also.
I use it for macros quite a bit, and find that it does nearly as good as the 100mm macro.
Here, you demo some excellent light control that it does.

THX !

A very nice lens indeed. Even shining more on this fantastic K3 III body. I had not even noticed someone was making a fire on the lower left side of the image when I took it. Now, quickly medium-format before summer is over ...

Regards

Beautiful colors and cloud formations. You really show the versatility of this lens.
