This was my first time to set my alarm clock to 4:50 AM on a sunday morning. I really wanted to take a picutre of this beautiful place on sunrise. As it turned out, I wasn't the only one with this intention. About ten other photographers were already there :-)
Here I met Eric Jacob (ej foto) who is also an Olympus photographer! Thank you for the nice conversation and the exchange of knowledge. Hope to hear more from you soon.
I made a lot of photos this morning. This one is made of a set of HDR photos, stitched together to a panorama. Hope you like it!

Sony rx1 is a full frame compact camera with a fixed 35mm f2 Carl zeiss lens. With no built in viewfinder and small battery (same present in rx100 series) and not a possibility to change lens, above all the premium price tag, this camera won’t appeal to the masses. But if you own it it will surely be your companion on the streets of Paris,Milan or Munich. The sensor even though is around eight years old is still one of the best. The ability to use flash at any shutter speed can overpower sun easily. The dynamic range and micro contrast is exemplary. Do I like it? The simply answer is AN EMPHATIC YES. will i recommend it to you? Hmmm... no!

Golden alyssum / Echtes Felsensteinkraut (Aurinia saxatilis)

What's better than a grass field, in the early morning light, for a case study on depth of field?
Lens: EF 100 f/2.8L IS macro (click to see all my photos with this lens)
1/250s f/2.8 100mm ISO 100
Processing: I used the full opening to get a beautiful bokeh and a narrow DoF, and I had to manually stack several shots of the flower with two butterflies, so that both of them be in focus.

OLYMPUS 75mm f1.8 is arguably the sharpest lens in m4/3 and the definitely the best portrait lens if you can handle the unyieldingly long 150mm frame lines in full frame equivalent. I added raynox m250 magnifying lens and even at f2.5 there’s hardly any depth of field to wriggle my toes within! Look at the sliver of in-focus area hardly a couple of millimeters, at f1.8 it literally ceases to exist beyond and before ‘A POINT’ pun intended.
Herðubreið is a tuya ( A tuya is a type of distinctive, flat-topped, steep-sided volcano formed when lava erupts through a thick glacier or ice sheet) in north-east Iceland. It is situated in the Highlands of Iceland at the east side of the Ódáðahraun desert and close to Askja volcano. The desert is a large lava field originating from eruptions of Trölladyngja and other shield volcanoes in the area. Herðubreið was formed beneath the icesheet that covered Iceland during the last glacial period. *

Carbon River Trail, Mount Rainier National Park, Washington
Sometimes on the way to the "big things" on a hike, it is the small things that capture my attention and imagination.
I was crossing a little footbridge over this creek on the trail and noticed the reflections in the water. What captivated me was that the water was only shin deep at most, yet the reflections of the sky and trees made it look as though it were incredibly deep. As though one could dive in and sink to infinity, wherever that may be :-)
Looking into that reflection was completely mesmerizing and I stood there staring down into it for quite awhile, lost in the illusion of depth.
"She's real, she's deep, she's logical and mystical. She believes in kindness and oneness and romance and magic. She's sensitive and distant, a warrior, a lover. She believes in road trips to the stars and dancing with the universe. She's fearless and gentle, wondrous and brave. She lives in waterfalls and forests and sunsets and galaxies. She's the artist, the thinker, the poem, and the dream."
