Amsterdam, very hard to find a person in the street.

Yes do so, it is a unique situation we are in. I usually avoid people in my images and that is not hard these days.

Again, too many months passed since my last RG post. Actually this year has been so weird that I have almost no pics that I find myself interesting enough to show here.
All with The GR II.

Best wishes to all.

I am glad you found these, though, as they definitely are good enough! The positive film preset looks to do the job, still

This is my summary of the last 6 months or so, also all with the GRII.

I've come to believe the GR + WA adapter is one of the very best Wide Angle-Macro options on the market (no doubt even a touch better with the GR iii). As a botanist who's always striving to portray very small subjects within their habitat context I really loved this combo. I shot these with the GR ii + adapter. I couldn't stomach the thought of this pricey combo suddenly becoming worthless due to the eventual lens motor failure so next I'll see how the DA 14mm does as a stand-in, but I'm sure it won't quite match the GR performance, and is of course much bigger and heavier.

Thank you! At least something good came of the miserable weather we've had lately.

Miserable = dramatic, no bad thing!

True. I'm trying to get better at exploiting such conditions, but dank and dreary weather tends to kill my mojo. Working on it, though

She was a bit skeptical when she saw me using a GR for shooting her portrait. "Won't that wideangle lens make me look horse faced?!"
