Couple favorites from my first trip with the lens in late April / early May:

Amazing photos! How did you post process your images? Have you considered trying to adjust the perspective? (Your panel states it is okay to edit so I did a quick edit in PS CC14 below.) The other option to consider to avoid perspective issues is to create a panoramic image.

I did go to the Meetup event yesterday. Turned out to be perfect weather. The farm was a bit smaller than anticipated but pretty interesting. Here are a couple images from the day:

Chance of rain according to the weather man but I went ahead and signed up. There are still spots open. Here is the link for more...

In case the Nikon 1 shooters here haven't seen it, there is an excellent thread and discussion on DPReview regarding setting up your Nikon 1 to maximize image quality.
