Beautiful. Transports me back to when I visited there briefly in around 2015. (I think).

Why not jump the gun and in 7 months time get 66.6 tattooed on your forehead? Then you'll only have to wait a mere 599-and-a-bit years before you get the decimal point lasered and you'll read 666 thereafter!

Happy birthday also, by the way.

Received the 135mm today! All looking tip top, as to be expected from John. Thanks again, John!

That'd be Pepperberryfarm on the other forum. He took his 25 for a run out last month I've had this a good few years now, searched high and low, and chanced on it on the other forum and it came all the way from Australia. Prices nowadays are eyebrow raising to say the least.
Thanks for the follow.
S!
That’s the one! He’s a good guy and takes some lovely photos! That'd be Pepperberryfarm on the other forum.

K-1 & Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 2.8/25

Little back story to this. I am attempting a challenge to use a single lens for a month, while posting an image a day. I had had a long day and was settled into a bath when I heard an almighty racket being generated by a couple of cats out the back. Fearing for my own cat, I had hopped out but noticed the droplets on the tap and ran downstairs to the back garden. Max, my cat was OK and I grabbed the camera, took a couple of images and settled back in with the 2nd days image completed.
Ah on the other forum? I’ve seen some stellar work lately with the Distagon 25/2.8’s kicking around there. Very jealous of them.K-1 & Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 2.8/25

I feel like a spring lamb in light of the above comments, being in the 'sub-30' age bracket.

Glad it arrived safe and sound in Greece! Not my first overseas posting but probably my most valuable! Sorry it took so long, it was very much out of my hand. Many thanks Ben - lens arrived safely (now to have a play)
David
Go play!

Some of them can be snug as well so takes a bit of effort to turn after depressing that spring.
