My daughter and I got up early to climb to the top of the higher Na Mueang waterfall (number 2). It was a tough climb but oh so worth it for the view. I even got to dip my feet in cold water - something of a rarity in Thailand!
即使在了無人煙的無人島上，人類遺留的垃圾和破壞還是隨處可見～～！😢
Even on an uninhabited island, the trash and destruction left by humans can still be seen everywhere~~! 😢
Too slow to react. Just missed out on her taking a selfie.
Causeway Bay, Hong Kong (Tuesday, 8 Nov 2016)
Set 12 second timer, run up the stairs and get into position for a selfie at the Guildford Lookout a little past Castlemaine.
ISO 200 | 1/1250 sec | f/7.1 | 7mm

Yep a fairly detailed selfie using the bathroom mirror, taken with a newly acquired, but used Sony A6300 and a new Chinese made manual focus 23mm f1.4 lens. It took a few shots to get focus that shows wrinkles and all.
So now my choice of gear to use includes Canon with AF lenses, an ancient FF Nikon with a couple of AF lenses and my old MF lenses and a tiny compact Aps-c sensor Sony camera. Yep, talk about not being able to make up my mind. I wanted something small and light and Canon really had nothing this small, and with a cheap lens adaptor that I purchased I can mount my old MF Nikkors. I also bought a 23mm prime used here, a dirt cheap fixed aperture 18mm MF lens (pretty much a toy) and a used Sony PZ16-50mm kit lens so I would at least have something in AF for the camera.
I have been shooting a bunch with the new to me compact Sony camera, getting to know it. Mostly around home and also at Hillside Park. I will be posting pictures using this camera over the next while, and many will be in B&W.
The post from yesterday was taken with the same lens as this shot, a Chinese made TTArtisan 23mm f1.4 prime. Completely manual. By no means are earth shattering quality of images produced, but the lens itself is mostly metal including the lens cap and focuses very smoothly. Great build quality in my opinion. Pretty sharp in the center at all apertures, but terribly soft not far out from center, and edges are down right blurry. This shot was cropped quite a bit. That said, it, or most any lens for that matter can still create useable images. One just has to work with its limitations.
Future posts will have limited descriptions. This long winded description was just to let you know if my recent purchases.
