For a second, I thought it is the wallpaper of window XP.
Great shot
Ha, I've had like 10 people say that I looked up the history on the Windows image that was used, it was named "Bliss" and was shot with a handheld medium format camera in the Napa Valley area. Now that same image is home to rows of vines. It doesn't say anywhere how much the photographer cost paid for the image.....but Im sure dude got paid

I need to fly to Paris and just watch how you work. I love all the stuff you put up on this site. This one is great. The composition is superb. The shadow of the couple on the footpath grabs you when you first look at the photo and draws you up into that great scene.
Thank you very much mate.
Maybe I should ask a friend to follow me in the streets with a camera, haha.

Howdy fellow 15mm's! It's been a while since I've posted on here and I've had my 15 for about a year now. It's easily my favorite lens and is on my K-5 99% of the time. With that being said the 15 does come with some heartache (at least my copy). Does anybody else have issues with extreme softness in the corners and even the edges on large landscape shots? I also have issues with a lot of CA, albeit on very high dynamic scenes which I know are an issue with pretty much any lens. I guess my question is is there anything I can do to help mitigate the softness? I used to focus 1/3rd into the scene, but the top corners were really soft, so now I center focus. I typically shot at f/8-f/11...have any other users found another aperture more useful for sharper dof on landscapes? Any info/help would be greatly appreciated! Here's 2 examples...

This image at 100% shows the mountain range in the top left corner is very soft! (Or perhaps I'm expecting too much?)



At 100% the tree's and greenery on the edge's are quite soft!
