Thanks Fons. 

Nice light with the zf 28/2  Is that a bit of distortion visible?

Corrected the perspective which provided for the exaggerated view.
The zeiss 28/2 nice lens not perfect moustachelike distortion,
but who wants perfect.

Nobody wants perfect.  The Zeiss 25/2.8 is also a very attractive lens, need to test it more,  but a bit busy with a lot of other things at the moment....

Everything seemingly comes in pink these days?

If you skin the fish, the meat will probly be white

Pink or pinkish orange, not white. We agree.

Fortunately the modification of the legendary Rodenstock XR-Heligon 100mm f/1.6 to native Z-mount does not prevent it from making wonderfully unsharp images :D same procedure as last year

My edit of the day, 19 years after I shone light on a piece of slide film I notice that there is a lot of information in that film I have never seen before. I further notice, that ACR12 is a great RAW converter for D850-NEFs!!!

Frank, I love that photo!  Capturing the puppy shimmying the water off and the person shielding from it!

This week we had a storm that started as snow and turned to sleet then rain followed by a quick freeze.
Here is the yard with a carapace of crystal ice covering the snow beneath as the sun was setting. Brrr...

Wonderful, this image speaks volumes!

Even with no faces visible, we can hazard a guess at their expressions (and some of the things being said)!
