Nature Color Studies.
Yet again „the walk“, I guess you know every single tree as well as I do right now ... BUT: I tried few things with the rendering, both while taking the shots and when processing them. When shooting I used a Kenko Nostaltone Orange, which is basically a diffusor and warming filter combined. That's where the color and softness comes from. I used a zoom lens all the way open, which gives vignette and fall off and a bit of additional softness. when proscessing them in LR and PS I payed attention to „fill the highlights with color“ and control the highlights in general. There was a beautiful „soft sunshine“ today (partially cloudy), and the light was so nice I hope I could capture that a little bit at least.
After watching the geese fly out (and waiting endlessly for the cranes to do the same), we moved on to one of the other ponds. Lots of cranes hanging around there, too. They were leaving in small groups like this one, four or five at a time.
There's almost the full range of flight motion in these five birds - the sort of thing DaVinci might have sketched as a flight study of the crane.

When I discovered that it was terribly awkward to photograph the bluebird nestboxes with my new Nikon D200 (little nestbox, great big lens, shooting blind) it occurred to me that maybe I should upgrade from my beloved three-year old Panasonic FZ10. I had seen so many lovely shots with the Canon S3 IS, I decided on that. There they are side-by-side.
The Canon feels very small in my hands, but then I've mainly been playing with the Nikon for the last several weeks, and it is definitely not small. But I think I will send the Canon back, and probably get a Canon S5 IS when it comes out in July. I think my poor old eyes would benefit from the larger LCD, and I think I'd like the extra megapixels too. No disrespect to the S3 IS!
What i really love about painting is that it can be not just an additive process, but also subtractive. I used washes of white spirit to peel away the oil paint, giving the effect above.

A concentrated collection of Central American artifacts, but with less desctriptive explanations or concern for artistic presentation for each item than in the rest of the museum.
Sign in Arabic next to an ornately carved wooden door. This is unusual for using the word "manzil", which means "house", instead of the more common "bait" (which also means "house") that you see in Muscat.
Forest Lake morning. Experimenting with the 100 mm macro still, it’s a great lens but I’m learning to hold it and use it, it’s heavy on the front of the M50 and that’s leading to more shake than normal and I already shake. I’m using the monopod to Support and I’ll see how that goes. I’m loving it when I get a good shot though
