Nice. Is that the f/2.8 or 3.5? I have the latter and often wonder if I should pick up the 2.8 sometime...

Its the f2.8 and I think its the first version. It is not optically perfect, but with some PP it looks good

M50/1.7

I wouldn't bother if I were you - the f/3.5 is better than either version of the f/2.8.

Lovely, and nice colors! What's in the drink?

I'd venture a guess... some sort of Pimm's?
Nice shot BTW!

Many thanks. Yes, it's a Pimm's - the gin variety, with lemonade, plus a shot of brandy, as mixed by our host.

Here are a couple more from M35/2.8, same week-end.

That boat picture is fantastic.

Good use of those old timers.

Sunset, taken this evening, west of Wichita, KS USA. Should have gotten out there sooner but wasn't expecting the cloud cover to break like this when it did.

We had a similar, awesome spectacle in KC last night. I decided to sit and watch it, though, instead of take photos. Glad you had pretty much the same thing in Wichita, and you were more ambitious than I.

Strange day today at the marshlands. Tons of birds, but they were all way more spooky than usual. Hunting season might have to do something with it.
Normally I can get decent range with K-3 and SMC A 400mm f/5.6, but today only American Robins let me get close .
Since I had my K-1 with M* 300mm f/4 with me I took a shot of Mount Baker in the distance.

K-1 and M* 300mm f/4

**pres589** · 10-02-2016, 08:21 PM

Statue in a park very close to my home. 50mm f1.4; with a bit of time to take my shot, I'm getting better results out of this workhorse lens.
