Hi Dave,

i love all of the images you posted but the flare in the shot of the car at the filling station is particularly intriguing. 11mm, f/2. Is that a 16-35L f/2.8 with the reducer?

Thanks! Yes, that photo is using an EF 16-35/2.8 L with a Nikon L37c (UV) filter, mounted to the M6ii on a Viltrox EF-EOS M2 0.71x adapter. The flare was intentional — I suppose I thought it would add some interest to an otherwise uninteresting moment while I waited for petrol.

My 16-35 is almost two decades old now and objectively horrible by most measurable qualities — sharp only in the centre, irregular wave barrel distortion — but I've learned to love it. lol
