I need to visit the Cadillac Ranch one of these days - colorful shots, Sage

Let me know if you do and I'll meet you up there. It's only a couple hours drive from me.

These aren't planes, trains or boats but you can still ride on them.

I'll do that Sage!

Here's another marina shot, panning right from the previous shot with the grackle on the post. The specks in the air on the right are crows or grackles circling above. There's a restaurant/patio at the back of the marina, so they're probably watching for food handouts...?

Out in my kayak putzing around the Harbor, caught a couple of nice shots of these guys out doing some close-formation play...

Its funny, when I see great photos by the K85mm like those above I still think, oh how I'd love to own that lens. But wait......I finally got one last year!! Guess some people who finally buy themselves a FA31mm have similar feelings - sometimes can't quite believe they actually own one? (Don't have a FA31mm myself

)

Here's a K85mm photo of a barge by the Thames. Its sitting (I assume) on old railway sleepers taken from a re-fit of the railway bridge behind.

Thanks utak! I played with the processing on these but I love the qualities of the K85...my favorite lens. I also have the 77ltd, which is terrific in certain lighting, but find the K85 better for portraitures.
