   Seems to be that I´m first  

After heavy rain in the morning the weather becomes better so I could do a little tour along the river Weser which is flowing through my hometown Bremen, Germany. Here is a first set of 4 pictures all taken with A6000 and Konica Hexanon AR 1.8/40 mm:

#1 Riverside

#2 Plugged

#3 Weser Tower

# 4 The Bridal Pair

So, now i wonder what you will present

	This is the photo and comment thread for the Pancake weekend of 19 and 20 September 2015. FAQ and guidelines: 1. What is a pancake? Good question! This is what Wikiwand says on the subject. So, in general: a thin, flat, short lens (on the original camera). If you want some kind of formula: depth < half diameter (of the widest part of the lens; depth does not include the adapter). Here's a nice list of 17 specimen. So called pseudo pancakes are welcome too: Rokkor 45/2 (which turns out not to be a real pancake; thank you addy); Rikenon 50/2; Sony 16/2.8 (E-mount) and 20/2.8 (E-mount) And pinholes? Well, they don't get much pancakier, so yes! 2. Post as many shots as you like and please give comments on the contributions of others. 3. Only photos taken with a pancake lens are allowed. Photos should be made on September 19 and/or 20 but may be posted later. 4. Please state which pancake and camera you used. Have fun! Happy shooting!
