Good morning to everyone wherever you are in the world...
  • Please reply to my original post when submitting your own pictures.
  • That’s reply to my ORIGINAL POST when submitting your own pictures.
  • Give your reply a title.
  • Leave your guns and knives at the door. Keep it polite. There are plenty of other threads if you can’t manage that.
  • First thread kicks off Saturday morning (UK time).
  • Don’t add any photos after my ‘POST NO NEW PICS’ message (reasoning below).
  • Newbies encouraged, any standard.
  • Avoid wasting thread space with replies such as “Thanks n/t”
  • Try to avoid several posts of pictures with a similar theme. Put them all in the same post to avoid filling the threads too quickly.
  • Photographs do not have to have been taken this week.
  • Images are often more impressive when viewed large.
  • Pictures of ducks in the local park? C’mon, you’re better than that.
  • Posting here implies you’re happy to receive a critique of your work.
  • You can post links to external websites but people in here tend to ignore them.
  • Apologies if I don't reply to everyone. This thread is becoming more and more popular and therefore more time-consuming. So…
  • PLEASE TRY TO COMMENT ON SOME OTHER PEOPLE’S WORK. That includes YOU newbies…it helps to take the strain off of me a little.
***PLEASE NOTE***

We will start the next part of this thread before this one is full. At around 110/150 posts. This does not mean the current thread is closed, but please don't post any new PHOTOGRAPHS to it.
  • Please continue to post COMMENTS and REPLIES to any thread but when a newer one has been launched, post your new photographs to that.
  • The reasoning is that if you’ve posted a picture in an earlier thread there'll still be room for you to receive a comment on it later in the week.
  • It also prevents tail-enders in earlier threads getting no comments at all because the thread to which they have posted is full.

Actually, I'm getting a feeling I've posted the first before but no time to check.

Dragonflies and assorted other goodies:

-J


This particular reed/grass was a popular way station for these guys. In the few minutes I was watching, several different ones lit upon the tip of it for a few moments each, then moved on. (100-300mm)


This one was taken in another spot, from a little further away than the previous shot, ergo it's not quite as clear; however, what's really cool about it is the shed skin of another dragonfly still clutching the plant stem below where the live one is resting! (100-300mm)

Just a nice Sunday afternoon walk up to the top of Monte Cavalbianco in the Italian Tosco Emilian Apennines.

I took the LX100 and did not miss my usual gear on this hot afternoon

In Italy they love putting crosses on the tops of mountains. One can just make out the Alps in the distance.

Reading Station has been through a major and costly upgrade. There's some interesting architecture now,  but I don't think I've captured it properly yet. Anyway. I quite like the sense of scale on this one.

Holy cow! The first is shut a great image. But I'd deffo cheat and clone out the other humans and maybe try a B&W version.
 
The first is cool - he looks a scary little beast.
 
Some lovely greens on that spider - quite an unusual fellow.
 
Sounds like a Carry-On film. Lovely sense of your ramble in these. Reading between the lines, I'm starting to think you quite like your LX100...
 
Nice - and so typically German!
 
Love it. Very weird.
 
Maybe a candidate for a B&W conversion?
