Great bokehs.
Wouldn't think 35mm can give a good bokeh such as shown and that Meyer-Optik Trioplan 100 is amazing. Only if I could figure out which older range finder glass are adaptable and which is not. Can anyone point me to a good link into compatibility and comprehensive list of available adapters to older lenses for NEX bodies.

I use a fair amount of rangefinder glass on my Sony A7R2. Generally speaking if you stay away from the wider rangefinder lenses including earlier LTM mount lenses ( less that 35mm ) they all work very well with the NEX bodies and Alpha bodies. There are many M mount or LTM mount to NEX mount adapters you can use, Voigtlander and NovoFlex make the best ones but are very expensive, Metabones and Fotodiox are quite a bit cheaper. The copy of the Trioplan is in Exackta mount, you can find it in LTM but it's significantly more expensive.

I really like the colors and contrast in your editing. Good job!

Thanks, coming from a Canon 5D MkII and Canon lenses, it took me a little time to gets my setting like I like in lightroom. I love Sony mirrorless and Minolta lenses.

Nice image! I bought my first minolta lens the other day (35-70). I didn't even know they done a 17-35. Ill have to check that out

Got mine from Japan as I have all of my Minolta lenses. The 17-35 cost around 240.00. Which compared to Canon and Nikon equivalent, is a steal. doesn't track quite as fast as Sony Fe lens but this one doesn't necessarily have to.
