Lovely shots Eldar. I especially like the Sunset at Torghatten.

Thanks Nancy, much appreciated. It is actually a bit funny. I've been an enthusiastic photographer for +40 years and until this year never really liked UWA lenses and certainly not produced anything worth seeing. But both this 15 mm and the 21mm has changed the situation. The 15 mm has been my most used prime this summer. Even more than the Otus.NancyP said:Eldar, you have found the right lens for your compositional eye and available landscape. A very happy combination, wonderful images result.
I love my Zeiss 21 f/2.8, am (slowly) learning how to do it compositional justice. I find UWA photography challenging. Definitely this is a skill and vision entirely separate from the more modest focal lengths 35mm to 105mm which are my typical landscape FLs.

It's an amazing optic. I really enjoy shooting with Zeiss glass.
rambarra said:Don't know really. I generally cosider these lenses too wide. I had the 14 II L myself and it was a compositional nightmare. Too much stuff goes in and you are never enough close to foreground subjects. I eventually sold it because most shots looked the same. For me 21 or even 24mm IS the landscape focal lenght
