A few more images
1

I've been very busy, but I managed to grab a few more yesterday and today. I processed these all in the camera, then sent them to my iPad and did a couple more tweaks in LR on the iPad. I'm not used to using this, so I couldn't do the processing that I like to do in LR on the computer at home, but I had a few spare minutes at work, so I wanted to get these out. All taken at F1.4:

Small spot focus came in handy here to avoid the bars grabbing focus

When I exported them from the iPad version of LR, it said it was saving them with 2048 pixels on longer side, but I see these seem to be 1620. I will upload full resolution images and crops, when I have more time to do them on my computer at home. I'm really not very familiar or comfortable with using LR on the iPad. Some of these needed faster speeds than 1/4000, so I was using the electronic shutter for all of them. The electronic shutter on the M6II is very handy for using F1.4 lenses wide open in bright light.

As the length of a thread approaches 150, the probability that someone will make the obvious "it's not the camera, it's the photographer" remark approaches 1.
