It's not a bug it's a (0.5*bug +0.5*gub)
Very clever and well executed!

This Amaryllis and its neighbour were brought indoor this week due to strong winds that always snap the flower stalks off. It's now next to a window to give it a hint of light but makes for a bad photography spot. I shot this from outside the window through the glass. 55mm micro covers so much of my flower shooting needs, only the incurrable GAS has me wanting more.

While waiting for the boat taking us into the fjords...
The mountains were just 'crying', it rained the day before and waterfalls just appeared wherever water could channel through

Hard driving on the way up: winding roads with hairpin curves, no-stop avalanche zones (wish I could, it was incredibly beautiful), low visibility fog rolling in, steady rainfall and a pretty long one-way tunnel. I was also dumb enough to make the drive late, falling light and not many others on the road.
Got lucky too, they closed it off after I arrive due to snowfall. But opened it back up on the day I checked out, phew.

Wow! You go a couple of days without checking in and miss some really great photography.

George: a couple of great shots with your Hasselblad kit. I particularly like the 2nd one of the barn and moon.

Matt: I agree with George about the shot of the brick wall and vine. Love the egret. Very nice.

Jay: another great series!

Jim: It looks like the fall colors are just starting for you. Nice series!

Scott: The 55/3.5 is just magic in your hands!

I thought I would spend a lazy Sunday morning photographing the town square while the businesses are closed and there's very little traffic. I took this opportunity to test the new to me 25-50/4. All of these are SOOC with a little tweaking and cropping. I think the Nikon Z5 does a great job with black and white. I may need to back off on the contrast a little, but I like the results overall. The 25-50/4 is an absolutely terrific lens!

A few more impressions of light and color with the CRT.

Honest feedback is requested, I am interested in how you see this type of photo.

I'll add to the autumn color theme. I managed some camera time in the garden this afternoon.
I can't believe the dahlia's are still budding and flowering so well. Will need to lift them out of the ground soon.

Now known as "That Wanaka Tree"

I'll be there sometime next month, what focal length did you have Chin?

(In case you're not aware, I am in Auckland now, landed on Saturday and will be touring the North Island first for 2 months and have ferry booked for December 1st then 4 months on South Island)

Colin Thanks - you have the formula down perfect. With this subject I did not have to use a power function!
Love the garden series, super use of color!

Rafael From my own peculiar point of view I tend to like accessible detail, that's why I mostly post photos that don't feature a narrow plane of focus. I am especially puzzled by equipment photos where the equipment is hard to see, but I am pretty far from the norm in this regard. Your flower backgrounds are gorgeous but there's not enough detail for my tired eyes to grasp without a hunt.

Northern Scott What a lovely view from the drive!

Southern Scott Looks like a lovely town with distinctive architecture! You must be on the chamber of commerce.

strohbleumlein,
I am a crazy cat person, but that dog with goggles on is beyond cute. I love it! Nice work with the mushrooms and the 50mm.

Welcome to the MF Nikkor thread.

Strohbleumlein, welcome to the thread, very nice set. Are the goggles on the dog a protection for swimming? They fit really well.

Jay, thank your for the feedback, I agree that need to take both wide open and partially closed photos when working with a subject, to be able to offer images with more detail to stop the eye on. I love the flower images I posted but it they are quite an abstraction lacking a grab 'handle'.

Hey folks, quick info. Strohbluemlein is Kristina, my better half. We tried logging in under her account (kruemmelkasper) which did not work. So reset password still did not help. Then we decided to make a new account.

The goggles for Lumi are nescessary because of an eye illness that is caused or intensified by UV light. The goggles help, but she also needs some eyedrops

Rafael, I view shallow depth of field as an isolation tool. To separate the subject from the background. It is important to pick the area that has focus, and to leave the background with enough impressionist clues that add, and not distract from the subject. I like it, and believe it can add more impact or drama to an image. Perfect focus front to infinity can flatten an image to 2D, and make it appear clinical. Advertisers tend to love the latter - though there are exceptions. This is just my opinion.
