photographed last year with ILCE-1 (Sony A7R-1) and Voigtländer Nokton 40/1.2
at 1/400s, f10, ISO 500, manual focus
the photographer on the left gives a bit of scale ;-)
I love manual lenses and old lenses. The Nokton 40/1.2 is the most 3D-lens I've ever photographed with. I think, the Voigtländer lenses have more pronounced 3D-effect than Zeiss lenses.

Very, very impressive!!!

thank you, @gKhan !

Wow, what grabs me is the array of colors and how subtle the contrasts work together. Awesome shot!

yes, @DanG , it works only with that combination of camera and lens. I tried the other Voigtländer and Zeiss and both sucked.
It is also important not to over-process the images. I learn how the light and colour work together from painters (from real 18 or 19-century landscape -paintings).

Amazing composition @ElenaH !! I like how the road on the bottom right leads to the big mountain, the view goes to its top and then recedes down to the smaller ones ultimately to the photographer who is the smallest element and falls in perfect alignment to the mountains. A human touch always helps in giving scale of the scene here the elements being the person and the two constructions. The Voigtländer has definitely a personal character here and hence I feel the rendering looks so natural!!

that true, @Prashant Prakash ! Thank you very much! And yes, Voigtländer has the special colours and microcontrast.
