Compact Camera Photography

Lecce is a compact city of less than 100,000 inhabitants large enough to have all the amenities but small enough to not attract too much attention, it is often called the “Florence of the South” but Lecce has a much longer history dating back to the Trojan wars so maybe Florence is in reality the “Lecce of the North”.
When the Romans were conquering the south of Italy in the 3rd century BC the Emperor Hadrian was taken with the charms of Licea so spent a lot of time fortifying and linking it to the Appian Way favoring it as well with a 25,000 seat amphitheater, this sealed its status as a favored city south, if you search the back of Lecce remnants of the theatre still can be seen today.
The best thing to do in Lecce is to get lost wandering the maze of back streets and alleyways through streaming sunlight light pocketed with deep shadows but be prepared for a neck ache your head needs to be on swivels to take in all the ornate details of every nook and cranny, picture here is one of the many scenes you will find in your explorations.

For Macro Mondays - Hole
I was struggling to come up with a hole for this week, out of time, then this morning I had to burn a CD so decided to use that.
Happy Macro Monday!
We have a lot of earth works going on at our property, and I am finding so many fascinating elements to document. This is an attachment for the excavator and a big pile of clay material we’re holding onto so that we can hopefully have enough to line a small dam!!
I hope that this photograph answers the question that was posed on the internet: "I'm looking for a compact camera and I am looking at the Lumix DMC-TZ80. Now reading reviews online are giving me mixed feelings. I see a lot of comments about how it takes bad pictures... So the question is, is it the camera or just the way people are using it?"
This is an uncropped zoom shot from the Lumix DMC-TZ80. I doubt I could have achieved a better result even with my 45.7 MP Nikon D850. And this compact camera has 18 MP. So you see, it's not about the sensor size or the specs of a particular camera. It is all about the light and composition.
A Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. They are very quick and small. Extremely difficult to photograph at this time of the year. This one posed nicely..
This guy/gal sat perched 20 ft high basking in the last 10 minutes or so of daylight left. Seemed curious what this photog was doing slowly scrambling for "just the right angle" :).
Green Herons stand motionless at the water’s edge as they hunt for fish and amphibians. They typically stand on vegetation or solid ground, and they don’t wade as often as larger herons. In flight these compact herons can look ungainly, often partially uncrooking their necks to give a front-heavy appearance.
This is a beautiful plant I bought for my garden back in September. It is still flowering beautifully. I am wondering if it will survive the weekend as we are supposed to hit 41 C on Saturday and Sunday - Summer doesn't officially start until Monday. I always dread our extreme Summers.
Nemesia Escential Raspberry Lemonade (Nemesia hybrid) features masses of fragrant flowers on a spreading groundcover. The dainty two tone flowers are a bold and colourful choice for garden beds and pots.
Perfect for late late winter colour, Nemesias will continue flowering well through Summer. Nemesia are fast growing, compact and very hardy making them ideal for borders garden beds pots and containers. A fast growing plant, Nemesia copes well with the extremes of heat and cold, and a light trim back will rejuvenate the plant and quickly bring on another flush of flowers, making them ideal for a long lasting display of colour.
Prefers a full sun position but will grow well in part shade, Frost tolerant.
Macro Monday's and the theme of "Pins".
A straightforward photo this week. I decided to focus on the pins of a Compact Flash card reader, It was slightly easier than using my Nikon D200 as a subject where the pins are quite recessed inside the camera. The card reader also has a blue light that illuminates when it is plugged in.
Compact flash cards are the reason I mainly use a lead to connect the camera too my laptop. I had heard stories when I first got my Nikon D70 of the possibility of pins getting bent in the CF card port so to this day I am still in the habit of using a lead.

To everyone that has left a comment or has graced the photo by faving it, thank you, thank you, thank you...
"Bufflehead are very small, compact ducks with large, rounded heads and short, wide bills. Bufflehead dive underwater to catch aquatic invertebrates. When courting females, male Buffleheads swim in front of them, rapidly bobbing their heads up and down. In flight, you can identify Bufflehead by noting their small size, fast wingbeats, and pattern of rocking side-to side as they fly."
Unedited version of the moon last night, is it the furthest reached for a compact, probably but of course it's all pointless.
