Newnham Sunrise by Mike Gardiner
Lydbrook Mist by Mike Gardiner
Both shot on Portra 160 120 film on an old Yashica Mat-124G TLR.
3 randoms from recent outings. 1 from Santa Pod, a bit of street photography and 1 from the seaside.

Nowhere near the quality of composition of everyone else's work, but here are the first few shots taken with my new G9, playing around in the garden with my macro tubes and the 14-140.
P1000614
P1000678
I was keen to try out the in camera focus stacking with a macro shot. The camera shoots a short video at 6K varying the focus throughout. Stacking is carried out in camera to produce an image from the mp4 file.
Here's the MP4 (well Flickr said I could upload a video).
P1000673
As you may not be able to see, the video is about four seconds long. During which time the fruit thief moves about far too much for stacking to work. I've tried multiple times. The result has many heads, too many tentacles, or just plain fails to merge.
Conclusion: Even with focus stacking automated and in camera, it's too slow to be useful for something as fidgety as a wasp. I did get some decent results shooting a watch dial, although the moving seconds hand had some displeasing artefacts.

Love the b/w one. Something about b/w photos that makes it such an emotive medium.Looking Through by realjv, on Flickr

It may be getting too cool for T-shirt and shorts and past the equinox but don't give up on summer yet.
