Nice B&W shot Matt.

Here's a 67 shot from last May, 165 LS with tubes, Velvia 50, Arizona Rainbow Cactus.

Wonderful shot there, Mike. Superbly executed as always...

I remember exploring around that vantage point (or somewhere in the area anyway) and just not being able to make the shot work because the visibility was too poor. Oh, and I hadn't travelled with my 600mm lens either ;-). Trust you to have nailed it! Definitely one to revisit when I'm next able to come over there... Maybe together?

This is superb - lovely deep colours and minimal composition.

Richard - i love that last shot in the series, shot with the 90-180. Lovely energy and mood to it.

**RICHARD L.** · 02-01-2021, 04:27 PM

Thank you, Ed. My "dearest" surprise was the performance of the P67 165 mm f/2.8, nothing short of breathtaking, even as early as f/5.6. The 75 mm f/2.8 performs admirably, too. The 75 mm f/2.8 + 165 mm f/2.8 make a terrific duo.

Regards

**Ed Hurst** · 02-01-2021, 05:16 PM

I have those two lenses. Always loved that 165 f2.8 when I used it on my 67ii. Haven't used it much recently, but must do some time... But the 75mm f2.8AL is simply exceptional (apart from a little purple fringing that's easily managed at the editing stage).

Whoa! Talk about being in the right place at the right time---and also with mastery of skills and vision. The second 2 are my faves because of the visual rhyming, sky to ground.
