Thanks. And it's true that there are plenty of lenses for the K-1 if you're willing to go the vintage route. Some of the primes are quite good, and they're often much smaller than most of the modern DFA lenses. The M 20/4 is almost a pancake lens — it's not all that much larger than the DA 21.

Here's another M 20 image from Patrick's Point:

Even the K lenses are svelte by modern standards. The K20/4 is significantly larger than the M, but not much larger than an FA50/1.4.

Very nice! Looks like a Passport Color Chedker in the middle of a field. What is it?

Cool industrialization of the beekeeping industry. I suppose those are color targets for the bees, but I never thought they would need them.

Beekeepers each have their own color they paint their hives. It helps keep them separate when the hives are placed in fields when hired out to farmers for pollination.
