Have you been on a walkabout? A trip? Or just around your house? Or something else? Please post your recent photos here.

Just a few requirements:

1. Photos must be taken with M-series cameras.

2. Photos must be taken in July and August 2024.

3. Please try to include the EXIF info (or at least post some info about the body and lens).

4. Comments on photos are of course allowed, but try to keep a nice tone.
 
How amazing. There is our little star, some 93 million miles away, and thanks to that lot, elevated at a couple of thousand feet, they are stopping the mesembryanthemums from opening petals to a not so bright new day.

Too chilly to sit outdoors and enjoy morning coffee and a bowl full of Pringles. The wind is blowing up a storm, and leaves are clinging to branches as if their very lives depend on it. (Which of course, they do). But that’s the style of summer, early July 2024 in central U.K for you. And the not oft’ reported issue of global dimming. :-)

Here's a photo I took the other day of an eagle in a nest. It's not a real eagle, but the nest is real. What had happened about 19 years ago, was that the nest was ready to fall out of a tree to the ground because a large branch broke off. So with some heavy equipment the nest was carefully removed, sterilized and placed in a room for an exhibit. The eagles were able to repair another nest that was nearby in another tree. That's why the nest is here for all to see. :-)

Did you notice the fish too? :-) I thought they put this together very well. It's very realistic.

Titled- "Unbudgeable"
Quite like the mood of this one. Is there a story behind the shot? How about the location?

A small part of the fairy garden partially complete. The rest of the area looks more like a builders yard. There is a fair bit to go. Weather permitting, a bit more will be accomplished tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the fairies and pixies are on a surfing holiday down at Croyde Bay. Those pixies had better be behaving themselves.

 My Begonias have been disappointing this year. Some creature had been turfing them out of their planters during the night.

......... + EF 70-200mm f/4.
I accept that it is larger than my EF-M 55-200mm, but it offers great results and a "fast aperture".

Kind regards,

Pop the 55-200 to the m6II and ease back into the recliner, waiting for things to happen near by.

Hanbury Hall by the Jinney Ring this morning (Central U.K). Boring as usual, but I can count the numbers of days out so far this year on the fingers of an amputated hand. This 80yr ol’ codger needed the exercise, even though my legs doth now protest the endeavour.

Blazing sunshine. Boiling hot day. Came back to raid the freezer for a lolly. :-)

Well, one thing good about infrared is it looks best in bright light when visible light photography isn't too good. All 3 shot with my M5 conversion, the 11-22mm lens and an 850 nm filter I had just received.
