^^^^Man, Sony gear is seriously impressive. What a shot.

EDIT: The photographer's skill in this instance is equally impressive. Hell of a shot, Ed.

Random shot from one of the last couple work weekends.

Thanks Mark! It's a bit of both I assure you. The A9 (and the RX10) has some magic in the AF tracking that is for sure. I get twice as many keepers versus my older gear. Kind of sad as I kind of prefer the look of a lot of my Canon files, but they just haven't kept up.

We really are getting spoiled by technology. This SOOC shot from an iPhone 7 would have been a pipe dream not too long ago.

Gaylord sure knows how to build a large building!

Nice shot.

M_Six · 06-20-2019, 03:42 PM

That's about half of the whole structure. One of the largest convention centers I've ever seen, and I've been to many.

Thanks everyone.

Tom, what do you use for your B&W processing?

spanner1751 · 06-20-2019, 07:08 PM

I just used the auto-fix function when I viewed the photo on the Chromebook I took with me on vacation. That's usually enough to give the picture a little more contrast and pop.
Occasionally I'll use the adjust brightness/contrast function in PSE, but that's not usually necessary.
Here is the picture as it came from the camera.

Interesting. I normally shoot in color and then convert in DxO.

"Pip pip", is what this hummingbird is saying. He's defending his patch of blossoms and will fly off this perch to defend it for all he's worth:

Those fine, cottony wisps are pollen from a nearby cottonwood tree.

M_Six · 06-22-2019, 08:54 AM

Great detail and colors in that one, DC.

I'm loving this RX10 MkIV as a walk around camera. Super versatile.
