Saw some images using an IR filter and thought to myself, “I used to have one of those”. It took me a while to find, but here are some pictures of Loch Faskally and down the river.
@Kurt, now that we’re in the equivalent of a rap battle but with birds, I counter with another of my famous blurry bird pictures of a crow and peregrine falcon:
It’s funny, even though I have never taken bird photography seriously, and I don’t have the appropriate equipment at all, I still keep snapping them wherever I go. I never thought I’d ever be displaying them, but here we are…
So do I. I photograph everything that’s not on the count of three on the tree.
But flying birds are a challenge, especially when they are small, fast and very manoeuvrable. Birds sitting on a wire can be nice - and remind me to Leonard Cohen
Agreed, although then I remember it was only a proof of concept - and think how lucky I am to get to use it all
Thanks! The colour palette and grain from the emulation combine really well with the lens rendering I think. It is a sweet lens. Mine came to me with fungus (hence low price) I dismantled partially and cleaned and it’s been great ever since. There are still markings in the coating from the fungus, but if anything a little haze only adds to the charm. I think…
That’s incredible, although I’m still waiting for a contact lens that can just correct my vision as well as glasses. It’s 2025 and by now I thought my long-sightedness and astigmatism would not be such a pain to deal with. I’m trying some new lenses in a couple of weeks that might mean I can get monthly disposables in my prescription, but it’s been a long wait to get to this point.
