Superb Geoff
Thank you Chris. Was a lovely morning and had the place to myself for the most part. A little disappointed that I didn't get the image I had in my mind as I set off, but such is is the nature of photography, results are found in adaptation and experimentation

Being somewhat out of practise, I decided I was going to get up nice an early and capture the sunrise over the river Avon in Pershore on Sunday. Alas I failed. I overslept and it ended up being a case of chasing the sun, which we all know is a futile exercise, so missing the best of the mornings pinks and blues I ultimately resigned myself to mediocracy ... Thankfully that lasted no more than 20 seconds, and I then used the light I had been gifted with to create a small series of silhouettes

That is gorgeous Geoff, a delicate fire in that winter'd tree.
Thank you, one of my favourite images I have taken so far in 2021, and one that's actually sold very well for me in prints.

Reminds me of Ansel Adams - and you can't get better than that . Had to get the book out and check. Yep, there's something of the spirit of 'Oak Tree, Rain, Sonoma County, California, c. 1960' (and others) about it. And you've handled the colours beautifully, which AA didn't have to worry about, of course .

And thanks for prompting me to get the book of AA's pictures off the shelf. Always worth doing but rarely done!

Thanks Lubby, any inspiration to get a book and have a read is win for me! I have a couple non photographic books that I really must start. Brought for me at Christmas, and sat ever since on the desk. Feeling guilty about that now.

Hi Geoff

The lens looks to be very sharp, but to my eyes the colours look a bit 'flat' and don't seem to pop? Just wondering what your thoughts are?

Regards
David
I have to agree, I find the rendition of the of the image a little muted in colour, to what I'm seeing with my eye. That being said my eyesight is failing and perhaps that's the real reason. Joking aside, I always process my images after the fact so, On the limited use I have had with the 135, I would added back in what the image needed I suspect.

Hi Geoff

Under normal circumstances I too would be happy to send you my lenses for review, but unfortunately we are going to Corfu in early April (we are resident there) and all my kit is going with me as I will be running photography tuition and trips out there. BTW, I have subscribed to your channel and will watch your videos with interest.

Regards
David
Thank you none the less David. Your listing above is invaluable to me in any case... Enjoy Sunny Corfu. I ahve been stuck in the house working since Covid started and putting in 14+ hours a day on a pc in an 8x6 room with a tiny window is driving me stir crazy... longing for the sea/coast and some time away... what I'm trying to say is I'm bloody jealous lol
