Stunning shot Alan - I am constantly impressed by what the Q can deliver. I have not tried mine on a tripod yet - must do so.

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

This is absolutely superb.
When the Q was first released I was very dubious about what it could deliver due to the small image sensor. I have been quite surprised and impressed with what I have seen so far on the forum.
It really does seem to me that despite initial worries (by most people lets be honest) that the Q punches way higher than what its spec sheet would imply.

A very fine example of what the Q can (surprisingly) deliver

Really like it but just wondering why you shot it at f5 it may have been even sharper at f8 since you had it on a tripod? Im assuming that 125ISO is base for the Q.
Great compo though just missing a bit of critical sharpness for me (but i am being really picky here)

I think I read somewhere that f4 is the optimum aperture for sharpness on the Q zoom

I often carry the Q in the car, and my tripod pretty much lives in the boot. So, last night as I was driving home I stopped off and grabbed this.
Any C&C welcome
