Great set of images! I admire the first three (252.1-3) in particular! They are outstanding - singularly and as a series!

I forgot to mention, the week is almost over but it's not too late yet, still 2 1/2 days left

It's week 39, 269 - 275 mm, so it includes 270 = 135 x 2 which gives an extra option

I was planning to do Day 270, but spent my week other than anticipated. Probably I have to skip the round for this week.

Yes, I read about your bicycling mishap in the DPC thread, I'm glad you're home again and recoving well. Maybe next week for 280 (1.4 x 200)?

Day 270, an OM Zuiko 135/2.8 coupled with an OM mount Panagor 2x converter. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer but not as bad as I feared when I spent 15 € on that converter. The lens by itself is very good but a 2x converter is usually a big drag on performance, especially 3rd party ones.

270-1: Sluice bunker in the anti-tank canal around Antwerp



270-2: The anti-tank canal, with the sluice bunker in the background



270-3: Closed (a semi bokeh shot)



270-4: A farmhouse at the end of the entry lane



270-5: This was laying on the ground from where I took the above photo and explains why I didn't get closer to the farmhouse


All A7ii + Panagor 2x converter (OM mount) + OM Zuiko 135/2.8


OK, on to week 280 next week

I did day 280 today, I'm travelling the rest of the week so to avoid taking the unwieldly 200/2.8 + 1.4x converter + LA-EA4 with me on my trip the only option was to use it today


280-1: Art takes many forms

De Poortwachter (The Gatekeeper), a rock clamped between two wooden beams, a work by Paul Gees.


280-2: The tower of castle Hallehof



280-3: Crepe fungi


All A7ii + LA-EA4 + Kenko DG Pro 300 1.4x + Minolta 200/2.8 APO HS G

Don't forget it's the week we've all longed for, week 43 for f/l's of 297 - 303 mm.

So get out your 300 primes and zoom ends, should be plenty around in the membership.

And after this it's basically free shooting the rest of the year with any prime/zoom > 300 mm, a good opportunity to also show your "mirrors" here, but classic telelenses are more than welcome as well

And don't forget, from now on every prime and zoom end > 300 mm is fair game, so bring out your teles and mirrors and show us what you can see far away
