Big weekend coming to my household this weekend. Of course the celebration will be a little different and the college graduation ceremony will be via a Zoom video conference, but you make the best of what you are dealt, right?
Got my son to get his cap and gown and since he is now a Wildlife Biologist, it seemed fitting to take some pictures in the wilderness. Complete social distancing
That was the fastest 4 years of my life.
Shot with the Noct and used a 4x ND filter so I could shoot wide open of course. And no, I still have not sold the Z6, will put it back on the market once things settle down. Maybe...

Congratulations to your son.
Are you giving him your Leica Monochrom as a present for doing so well?

It's really nice when one of your kids takes an interest in tings that have been important to you over the years. My daughter is also really into photography. While we both enjoy landscapes, she has such a different "eye" than I do - better, I think. But it is so fun to go out and shoot together. She and her family got out of California before the lock down to weather the storm here in Montana. My second joy, next to having a granddaughter here for 3 months, is to go out and hike/shoot together.
Wishing you such fun in the coming years!

Thanks! He has taken a liking to the 850 though. Came in the other day and he had it with the 200-500 shooting birds in the backyard. So maybe the real camera bug has bitten. Would be glad to pass it along to him.
Re: the Leica, he may have to fight Leighton for that
