Stormy weather in Copenhagen ;)
Df and 105mm f2.5
Nicely captured! Indeed very windy here, and high water,,,
"Søerne" "The lakes" used to be a river, then a dam for a mill that made it into a lake, then used for entrenchments to protect the old Copenhagen city.
Extremely popular area for all kinds of activity  8) :-*

Thank you Erik, and also explaining the area, yes a nice spot in the city, but yesterday it started snowing/raining.

Not sure what you mean by wax dresses? :)
Figures dressed in long white dresses mounted on floats, can’t remember if there were male figures? Think eighteenth century.

That's an excellent way of using a fisheye lens, Jack. The light striping really adds to the overall impression.

Thanks Birna,

It is the old pre-AI 16mm f/3.5.
I'm finding interesting to explore. Here is one without as many straight lines to curve, but the horizon manages to wrap around.

I have updated the firmware today also but haven´t tried any of the new features. This is actually with the 28mm f2 ai with cpu.
  This is what 13:00 hours look like today in Spain. Had to take the motorcycle to go to Cordoba and back. Around  celsius and sunny, perfect weather.

Lovely indeed.

The typical look of a cat that is wondering why new firmware with mostly AF enhancements is being tested with a manual focus lens  ;)

All is back to normalcy in the living quarters. Preparing for another long field season is under way. That entails a bit of parts tinkering as well. and the liberal use of epoxy glue.

Just testing the new helicoid for the CRT-Nikkor 55/1.2 is working properly. It is.
