thank you....

you're funny, however, in that I have a hard decision - I'll be keeping both...

different lenses, different feels, different photos....

My AF lenses don't compete with my manual lenses as to what goes and what stays. Manual lenses are an entirely separate thing.

That is simply spectacular. Did this take a lot of processing or was the light this magical that evening?

It was a processing workout for sure, especially the experimentation deciding what combination of tweaks I liked best... Even this edition I almost binned until a friend encouraged me that it was a nice result.

Thanks, and cherish that friend, I'd say.
