Shot late today with my new Sony 7A-RII with a Canon 24-70 IS L 2.8 lens and Metabones adaptor. Shot wide, and cropped in. Catch the sprite bolt to the right of the cloud base. I am so happy with this mirrorless camera!

(9,463 posts)...and rec your post, even before I read it. Your posts always take me away to a place I would never know and I don't want to be awed into forgetting to hit the rec button before I move on to the next thing.
Thank you for always sharing your view of the world, DemoTex.

(26,447 posts)A few weeks ago it was 117*F in Tucson. It was a very warm 84*F at 9000 feet. Hottest day I have seen yet. Tonight, I have the heater on.
