Today, a traditional landscape picture. I am mainly carrying the 16/1.4 and the Laowa 9/2.8 these days and sometimes I forget to use the 16mm as much as I ought to.

Thanks, glad you like it. The 16/1.4 was my first serious Fuji lens and I used it a lot. I had a brief period where I used the newer 10-24 but didn’t gel with it. Unfortunately I had sold my 16 to fund the 10-24 so then had to sell the 10-24 to buy another 16/1.4. This is the only time I regretted selling a lens so much and had to buy another copyIt's a truly great lens. I like this shot a lot. The lens is also surprisingly versatile, as the close-up photos of leaves in this thread - both yours and Bobby's - amply illustrate. A few aeons ago, when I first dived into Fuji-land, I vacillated for some time between the 16mm and a Fuji 18mm lens - but finally chose an 18mm compact Fujicron, partially because of its small size. But looking at 16mm images here I'm reminded again of what a fine lens it is.
