Another superb one Mongo!  Minimalist and almost monochrome with excellent detail. 

I'm blaming you for spending the money on this lens  :P.

Big thanks Bill. Mongo is always pleased to hear from you and get your views. Now that you draw Mongo's attention to it, it is almost monochrome. You see, often  some objective third party viewing the work is the better indicator. It is very hard to gauge what other photographers will appreciate. As you know , many look but often do not comment - simply no feedback. The obvious true course is for the poster to post what they think is worth a possible look and get some critique on it if lucky enough.

Mongo will now happily accept the blame for you getting one of these lenses. The lens , when properly set up, will justify the money spent on it.  Happy shooting and cruising with Mongo's regards.

Very nice, it has a kind of hypnotic stillness. Great colours too.
