Greg.

The Samyang is quite good - minimal CA up to 85% of the frame then it becomes bothersome but still better than any fisheye I tried to date. It is very compact and exceptionally well made - reminds me of older Pentax lenses.

Thanks, Paul. I batch process in Nikon Capture NX2 when I convert from RAW to jpeg.

Seems the best conditions are hot with light northerlies to hold up the waves. Btw, I saw some bioluminescence at Gibson steps as well. Not as strong as the Prom, but enough to give the waves a blue tinge.

It is amazing, given that normally we are 3300 kms apart . I was there just just Thursday night and then drove home in the morning.
