Nice car, but I thought the (newer) Morgans where equipped with BMW V8 engines?
Don't know much about Morgans Ralf, but i do know they have had many years of difficulty certifying them for the U.S. and have sold even with propane engines. This may be a new Morgan with a Ford V6 for US compliance, or an old one beautifully modernized, if I see it again I will ask.
Especially like that first shot Leighton, the processing and lighting on the flowers is top rate. You were always good at capturing market interaction, and you've done it again with the second shot.

Thank you for the Alhambra shots Serge, loving them. Always wanted to visit but never got the chance.
Ray - regarding your love of velvia film, why aren't you shooting Fuji ? Tell him Leighton !
Lots more great pics, likes added, sorry I'm on the road so need to go. Lots of pics taken don't worry !

Andy, I won't admit to anyone how many times I've toyed with the Fuji idea, especially the XT series. Just keep telling myself that I need to stay focused on the two and a half systems I'm already involved in. A lot of gear would get used even less than they are now. And my wallet would be lighter.
A lake that is close to my heart - Kehl Lake near the tip of the Leelanau Peninsula. I spent my youth fishing it, and later photographed the family for twenty years in a special tree. It's 75 acres of water now sits in almost 300 acres of forest, with no buildings on any of it. I haven't been there in years (2018 or 2019) - so I hope that is still true. D800 with the 16mm f3.5 ai
Wow! This must have been a lot of work. I imagine they had to switch nearly every part except the body (new suspension, brakes, chassis, ...). Really fascinating, thanks for showing!

Great story! Photography for me is all about remembering, "freezing moments in time". We also have a pond nearby in the middle of woods, albeit a smaller one. And I also spent part of my youth at this pond - not fishing, but cycling around it. I still visit it about every two or three weeks.
Nice! What is the purpose of the strap on the replica Austin Healey? I assume decorative hood hold-down or cargo strap? I always get uneasy seeing metal lay on a car body like that.

Time, new locations, opportunity, light, vision, discovery. All of these rarely come together, thus the similar scenes and subjects. The best chances comes when we travel, but when we fly to our destination, MF lenses almost never make it unfortunately. I have too much FOMO and usually end up with AF zooms and one large aperture prime.

I don't own any AF lenses, so I'm forced to use my MF ones. I think at this point, it would probably be difficult for me to even use an AF lens. My cameras for the past 10 years or so have all been setup to use MF, so I've ignored all the settings for auto focus on them thus making me somewhat ignorant on their use.
