Hi Nicola,
the Genoese tower and the village looks like St Florent to me, it's been a while since I've been there. Will be on the island again in a couple of weeks, looking forward to it.
St Florent is beautiful as all the coast of the island.
4 great days riding motorbike with my friends.
Fascinating to watch the way the seasons change in different parts of the world. In Minneapolis Bob was photographing the ice fishing just a very few weeks ago (or so it seems) and now the trees are in full leaf and his friends /family and dogs are sun bathing on the boat.
Things happen a bit more slowly in the UK
Beautiful set as always. I think spring moves faster the further north you are. The long spring is one thing I miss from Stockholm. Here in Trondheim sometimes it seems like we go straight from winter to summer, and the opposite in fall... Twice since we moved here the first snow arrived early in October and stayed all winter.
On Saturday I went on a really nice daytrip with some friends to a peninsula outside Trondheim.
All A7 and CV 35/1.7 VM.
Photo taken in Magic Hour, the evening of April 24, 2016, at 7:30 PM (about 21 minutes before sunset) looking at farmers fields along Loch Valley Road with my shadow, New Tripoli, PA. Image taken with my tripod mounted A7rM V3 camera and my Zeiss 35mm f1.4 Distagon ZM lens, ISO 100, lens set to f11 for 1/50 second. Processed with CornerFix and LR6.
Two images from the valley floor - we noticed that the sun was going down pretty fast. So, before we reached the planned outlook point, which was higher, we pulled over along the way. We ran to the top of a small hill, setup the tripod and started shooting. I managed to get just two images without much deliberation to composition. The aperture was at f/4 from the previous indoor shooting but luckily the G Master lens came through at f/4. Phew! Here is one the images while the sun was still shinning on the buttes.
The second image was captured a few minutes later after the sun disappeared but before the light became too blue and too flat.
