View of Lookout mountain from top of Raccoon mountain, TN
A bit of a dark treatment on a funky building. Sweden.
Nikon Z 50, Samyang 300mm @ f/6.3 - focus peaking is great but in this case I went a little soft

An exercise in careful positioning of selective artificial light and use of controlled depth of field to produce an edgy composition with deep social comment on the nature of food. OK, a shot through a deli shop window. I liked it .

It’s hard find creatures as handsome as Darmok, but once in a while you get lucky.

@Hughmac what is the focal length of your LB? I don't think they sell the plain composer anymore? Or is yours one of the optic swaps? I have the LB Composer Pro with the Sweet 35 and Edge 80 optics but I rarely use them. I cannot ever get a good focus area on them - even a small area. I have much better luck with my V46 and S45, which have amazingly sharp areas and then blur around them. I can't seem to get that with my swaps. But your images do seem to have one actual area of focus.
Mine's a 50mm aperture disc swap, (very old) and I generally leave the f/2.8 disc in.
You're right, I don't have much trouble focusing, and in the above case I tilted the lens about half way as well.
A keeper I think
Cheers

I already posted a close-up of the obelisk, but here's a panorama of the sun dial on top of the Hoheward park:
