Another "not for everyone's taste lens", the Okaya Optic Highkor 40 mm f/1.8:

Nice use of another lens with quirky bokeh. One could open a new thread in the DCC called BBBS - Busy bokeh is beautiful in stereo . Also the second one is very Bosun Higgs-ish, to continue with cross fora relations.
Maybe I'll go out later on to take one or two of my long disdained busy bokeh lenses to create some similar stereos. _________________ My Outlet

Look what I did with my big boy's toy!
A 50 foot or so conifer in my neighbour's garden had been dead but vertical for 20 years. Then a storm made it horizontal. So I used my chainsaw on it.
The ones from the base of the trunk are about 15 inches/45cm diameter, the others getting gradually slightly smaller. I had removed 4 tip ones earlier.
These were in deep shade but the shafts of sunlight produced extreme highlights, varying as to whether I was standing or kneeling. I reduced them in the first 2 images, perhaps affecting the greens.
The cut surfaces are cream the brown sections being soft and crumbled.
I just checked the weights of some of them. A typical one was 14kg and one of the larger ones 23kg.

I use 8-lb maul with fiberglass handle. Also have a really nice Japan-made 8-lb head, but broke the handle long ago been too lazy to shape a new one... And a Huskvarna hatchet around the wood stoves.

This one is very nice! I'm sure there are great opportunities for stereo-imagery in surroundings like that.
Weather is very hit or miss here, so I'm only able to take shots close to the house. Here's one with a Mamiya-Tominon 32 mm f/1.7:

Chainsaw taking the credit!
A7r3, Laowa 10-18mm at 18mm and f11 or f16 (some of each in original selection).
Deep shade required ISO 5000 but shafts of sunlight gave highlight burnout, somewhat moderated digitally.

There is no right way up. It can be turned over to combat wear. |
Yes it can be turned over, which I do regularly, but isn't right-side up when the lettering is upright? |

Well, I think so because I want to. I know the bar is symetrical. And after the paint wears off I won't know which side is up. LOL _________________ ☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮ like attracts like! ☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮☮

Unfortunately I don't have a chain saw, so I'll have to post another shot of a more modest gardening tool:
