LOL. That's how our monorail is lit at night. And what's weird is that it's only isolated on that segment of the whole monorail.

And you have some crazy sculptures to help make your night more enjoyable! That thing is weird looking haha

Congrats on getting the new lens, I hope everything works out for you and you can get to shooting soon.

Thanks. Yeah, we left the Palazzo underground garage on a Friday and we saw whole bunch of E46 and E92 M3s coming in. I wasn't there for the gathering as I own a 1994 Supra TT hardtop. But it was great to see some nicely done M3s.

Well done, Allen!

The first day of having this lens, I was having buyers remorse as I look to my 50 1.4 and 50 1.8 which I still have around. I've owned it for 3 days now and I am just starting to appreciate it. I've stopped pixel peeping (as this lens will teach you to stop doing that!) and have come to really enjoy it's ability to isolate subjects at 1.2, appreciate its ability to produce rich rich rich colors, beautiful bokeh, and it's vignetting (I love vignetting).

More photos Will be posted later today.

You really have to play with this lens for a while to appreciate it.

This is wide open, its not a great photo but I just love the way photos look with this lens.

I love it's smooth focus ring compared to the 50 1.4 and 50 1.8. I love how the lens looks! Not only do I love the look of the photos produced, I love the look of the design! It reminds me of a mini keg. Hahaha! Oh man!
