Amazing clarity Axel, it almost looks like CGI (in a good way).
It's quite humbling really while the rest of us are farting around with dozens of lenses you are still getting the goods with just your one lens!

hehe - when you have only one lense, you start to learn to get the maximum out of it . But honestly - since a few weeks I own two more - the Pentax 100 mm Macro and the 10-17 Fisheye - but as both are rather extreme lenses, I still use my "good" old 18-250 in most pictures.

It's incredibly noiseless against the high ISO value. Did you use any SW tool to reduce it?
I love the colours, the sharpness, the lights and the high details. Well done.

Hi Gabor - most pictures of me have some amount of post processing - but I seldom use noise reduction as this is often causing a loss of sharpness and clearness. Honestly - with this photo I was also surprised, why there is nearly no noise (there is some in the wood). My other 1600 shots that I took in real dark areas show much more

Another extraordinarily good image Axel. Your work continues to amaze... And I thought only prime lnses could produce images this sharp and detailed!
Best wishes,
Andrew
