Going through my miscellaneous camera stuff I found a screw fit 2X 
converter which might just add a new lease of life to some of my longer 
lenses if I decide to pursue the life of a peripatetic paparazzo. With 
the builders ensconced and thus being under effective house arrest 
today, I decided to play with it.

View from my garage down my drive to Monkstown Road.
Note Victorian 12 pane window in house in the distance - shown just 
above my car roof.
Sony A7ii with Zuiko 35/2.8 lens. Can be seen LARGE.

The same Victorian 12 pane window shown just above my blurred car roof - 
uncropped. Sony A7ii with Soviet era Pentacon 300/5.6 lens and Tokina 2X 
Converter. Can be seen LARGE.

Folks, it's maybe nearly Russian, but it's yuuuge, and great. Great and 
yuuuge. Some people say I've got the biggest and best glass in the 
world. Anyone from the lying Leica loving mainstream press who says 
different is telling you fake news :-)
