    CC appreciated :-)

    You've received a lot of comment on your pics, but do continue exploring atmospheric mood, composition, and learning. You are on the right track. 1. The pics of the river feels like the scene is tilting to the left. Maybe rotate the image to the right just a tad. 2. The overall composition and...

    Upgrade from Z5 to Z6ii

    Upgrade from Z5 to Z6ii

    I don't do anything professionally anymore, just visually interesting odds-and-ends as you see in my posts.

    Upgrade from Z5 to Z6ii

    I used a D500 for a few years, then a D810 briefly, finally the Z5 these past months because a used body was affordable from a local Southern California camera shop. The Z5 serves me well except for the 4.5fps and the viewfinder blackout during exposure. I'm interested in hearing from any...

    A mixed salad of sky blue and mustard yellow with some slices of ochre, green, and a chunk of red to the side. I'm color deficient in the green area, so I don't really know if the colors are green, teal, or cyan. Nikon Z5 Z 24-70mm f/4 S
