The Bay Bridge from Yerba Buena Island shot with my K1 and the FA 31/1.8. I'd wanted to take a shot from this location for quite some time. Over the years others commented on the difficulties of getting to this spot. They were right. The descent was bad, the climb was way worse. Bay Bridge by Andrej Vanicek, on Flickr

Went skiing in Tahoe this last Thursday, and managed to make it to the lake for sunset. This was at the public pier in Tahoe City, looking southeast with the A-20/2.8 at ISO 100, f/9.5, 30 sec. Quiet... by Andrej Vanicek, on Flickr

Thank you. I guess the rather tough hike discourages people so you don't come across this view all that often.
Thanks. Glad you liked it! Do you have your grandfather's painting?
Thanks very much!
Thank you. I am pretty happy I went too, but I don't think I'll be repeating the adventure any time soon!

This thread hasn't been posted to in a long while, time to revive it. Here's one with my A-20/2.8 from a couple of days ago at Lake Tahoe, CA.

Tried some range masking with this image from last summer.

It was shot hand-held with my K-1 and FA 135/2.8. The settings were f/9.5, 1/125, ISO 100. Below is the RAW file. I'd watched a few youtube videos on Lightroom range masking. This was the first time I gave that technique a somewhat more serious try. I used seven graduated filters and two radial ones to target and enhance different layers in the photo. It was all trial and error, a lot of going back and forth as is usual with my processing. I am sure the RAW could be made into a better final image with more skill and effort.

Biz-engineer, thank you for the test and write-up about it, confirming the K-1's sensor's great capabilities. My approach is to always use LENR when I am working in the dark. With the astrotracer shots it isn't too bad as one can't go for too long exposures anyways. With foregrounds at low ISO though, the extra double time is a pain, but as the above gentleman from Sweden proves it is worth the wait!

Hi, I was without access to my computer for close to three weeks now.... Computer upgrade trouble, vacation away from home, more computer trouble... I will get back to you when I sort things out here. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Yeah, me too. Their season typically runs through the end of September. I am hoping we can go at a later date then.
