Oh Gareth, you have hit the target again.

The rail lines shot has to be my favourite.

What a great set Gareth - as above thanks for sharing. Not sure how they look large, but from these looks as though you have a great depth of sharpness from foreground to the distance.

Thanks all, appreciate the very kind words.

Andy, the Irix has a hyperfocus scale on it so at f16 its in focus from 0.7m to infinity. No need to focus, just compose and shoot

That is very useful - seems to be great little lens!

They do look excellent Gareth, the rusty rail line shot is absolute top notch - I'm sure the small size doesn't do them the justice they deserve

Excellent shots Gareth.

What a lovely set... all very nice indeed, but particularly like no.3... the portrait frame brings the cloud lines in the sky more into play composition-wise to my eye...

Best

Brilliant low viewpoints, I especially like No 2 for that. Some gorgeous tones in the rocks and grasses as well. Where is the light coming from right in the extreme foreground? Or is it just a dash of dodge...?
