A view along the track we had just been along, taken on the return from a walk this morning,
I thought I would try the Affinity Photo software for which I took out a free trial a few weeks ago
This result is somewhat over processed. I guess I shall stick with Lightroom for now

During Covid19 Lockdown, I got bored and gave this grey misty sunrise image some false colour. More of Bradgate Park on my little blog - www.facebook.com/BradgateParkBlog/

The name of the species provided by Rita Eberle. Thanks, Rita! It is very common also in the urban areas in Holland.
I apologize too for making the simplest mistake in bird photography, and that is taking the shot from behind. But most birds (except geese) don't listen to my posing instructions.
Taken in late May of 2020.
I just spent 1½ hours editing the raw file of this snapshot in Affinity Photo 1.8.5.703. Seconds before I would hit "Save As"..., the program shut down unexpectedly without me interfering at all. All the work was gone. No developed file, no temporary file saved, no nothing. All the work gone in a split second.
Instead of being mad, I tend to see this as a sign. I have to leave the Affinity. The program though extremely capable is complex, unintuitive, the possibilities are immense but hidden deeply in the menus with an interface vocabulary that needs learning from a scratch and memorizing it.
It simply may not resonate with my mental disposition. I have gone many times through the excellent Lynda tutorial, and I can't memorize it. I have to start the tutorial all over again each time I have to do some serious work after a while. I've been trying hard, for some two years perhaps, and the concept simply doesn't seem to fit in my head, or rhyme with my mental setup. Long ago I had used Corel Photo-Paint, and the UI was so logical and intuitive you didn't need any assistance, just explore the menus.
The time has come, it seems, for me to welcome Lightroom at long last. After many laborious, strenuous sessions with the Affinity, I am fed up with it's complicated hidden inner logic. And now this nasty trickery with the program closing itself by itself with no backup files of the work in progress. IrfanView is an excellent but much underrated editing tool, next to being probably the best viewer available. It has never failed me like this, in almost two decades that I've been using it. It is blazing fast, the code is extremely light, reliable and efficient. But neither the old Corel version I had, nor the latest Irfan, are the tools that can replace Photoshop, Affinity, Capture One, Luminar or Lightroom.
Instead of frustratingly launching onto a yet another questionable 2-hour start-all-over-again session of Affinity, I decided to use here the E-M10 ooc jpeg, just slightly edited in IrfanView.

I've been working on learning Affinity Photo... an alternative to Photoshop at a MUCH better price. Does everything photoshop can do!

▼ Vixen VC200L | EOS R '25
On April 30, 2025, I captured a photo of the Moon during a deep-sky session in Koblenz, Germany. The Moon was a thin crescent, and I aimed to highlight its faintly lit dark side. Using my Canon EOS R camera and Vixen VC200L telescope, I took about 150 images of the bright crescent and one longer exposure for the dark side. Combining these in Affinity Photo, I managed to showcase the subtle glow of Earthshine on the Moon’s shadowed area. While the dark side remained underexposed, this experiment was a valuable step in refining my astrophotography techniques.
These houses were torn down to build The Northern Illinois District Federal Court House. The factory in the background was converted in to Embassy Suites. Behind me at the time were several small factories and a semi-trailer parking lot. This area was torn down and a geenspace next to the federal court was created.
