I like the treatments including the grainy film-like mono. It's amazing how good the 28-135mm proves to be, now that digital shooting enables the contrast to be enhanced a bit (it was never very contrasty overall but with exceptional micro-contrast). Good set of pix.

It's a lovely lens. Too bad about the MFD though!
Thanks for the feedback DK.

I agree, certainly an interesting set of photos, sharp and well exposed/composed, (though I found myself wondering how a landscape version of the breakwall shot would look, just for interest sake), also I sort of felt a tad overwhealmed with so many topics/subjects/styles all in the one post...but no great biggie.
I like the pretty flowers especially.

Lovely shots Elisha - quite a mixture, demonstrating a braod range of interests and talents I think. I really like the moody, grain enhanced B&W first shot. I also really like the colours and shadows on the flower shot.
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.

A group pf us went for the county fair there and most of the pictures had busy distracting backgrounds so I had to pick and choose which ones would look good.
Then we also went into the town and the waterfront.
I did the rocks and water in portrait mode cause 2 of the people I went with are actually in the shot.
If you look at it on flickr, they are marked with notes.
