From today's park walk via the Sony/Techart/Sonnar rig. Maybe I should start a series called Unnecessary Signage. (The park rangers did a lotta good work over the winter, though, like clearing out saplings and tall brush from grassy areas and so making wildflowers happier.)

Ambiguous traffic light ahead.
They go well with my shot in post #1441.

Probably the last one I can squeeze out of my little rainy afternoon trip to the old power station. Well, I was only there for about an hour, and never got out of the car.

A fine shot, Rob.

Thanks, Russ, I think it is a site that would really fit in well with your old prairie relics interests; human constructs beyond their time...

I'm not sure how the peculiar, repeated fence shapes in the upper part got there; I kinda suspect it had something to do with freak light reflecting off the surfaces of the individual elements in the lens.

I hope I didn't post it before as part of the power station shoot of the other week.

And the fence pattern adds to the mystery.

A pair of tiny critters from today's park walk. Also saw a pair of orioles…very unusual around here. Just as unusual as the chickadee sitting still long enough for me to take three whole frames!

A tale of two lenses. The first is a Zeiss Jena 85/2 Sonnar in Leica Thread Mount, the second a Leica 75/2.4 Summarit. The Zeiss is likely a late 1940s lens assembled from WWII-era components while the Leica was made in 2016. Photos via a Sony A7iii + Techart Pro AF adapter for M mount lenses. Both lenses wide open at minimum focus, 90 & 75cm respectively, with a little additional extension from the Techart. Both photos cropped (not much) for near-identical framing and also processed in iOS Affinity Photo close to identically.

IMO there's very little in it. The Leica has a bit more resolution & snap while the Zeiss has more focal length & speed. Neither impedes anyone from taking a compelling photo nor is capable of turning sows' ears into silk purses.

(I took the two critter pics above with the Zeiss Jena lens.)
