Couple from Herastrau Park in Bucharest (with the DFA 24-70).





Wonderful pics and great use of the 24-70/2.8 that doesn't receive much love!

Here's a couple I took last night with the K1 and an Astrotech AT65Q telescope on an iOptron SmartEQ Pro. The telescope is a 420mm f/6.5 quadruplet refractor with an integrated field flattener. I cropped the first one some. Both have 5 minutes worth of processing and have been resized.
Those two are impressive pictures at least...

Well done! Which spiral galaxy (the biggest, not the little guys) in the second image, the Whirlpool?
That one is M81, or Bodes Galaxy.

Ya know what I like about your sets Frederic? You prove that you know how to make any lens look great.

Your flowers with the FA35 are great today, as were they with the DA55mm, as were they with the Tamron 90mm, etc. You just do good work.

That really is confidence inspiring for equipment junkies who always ***think "if I just had XXXX lens like so and so". Sure, some older lenses were pure Coke bottle bottoms, but today? Nah, most lenses are pretty darn good, so many times it's just talent like yours that make them shine. Nice job!

(***That didn't stop me from recently picking up an Irix 15 and a Soligor 20 though... LOL! )

BruceBanner, terrific series, love the perspectives.
Eric, I favor the second shot, glad to see you did not use that Irix thing...
gaweidert, that is a scene where I LOVE to see the bright snow, nice shot.

Thank you. It was a pretty dreary morning but not having tree shadows on the snow really helps determine your exposure. Look for a grey area to meter and go from there. I did brighten the scene a bit in post processing too.

Seeing the park with a fresh snowfall was like never having been there before. That is what I like most about Yellowstone. It is always presenting you with something new. You just have to remember to put the cameras down once in awhile and simply experience the place.

Unfortunately there's no simple answer to your question.
Could I answer your question?
Oh yes, you answered very well. Thank you for sharing your tips, I am sure it's helpful.

If you are interested in C1P I can recommend the YouTube Webinars and Sascha Erni's Book about Capture One that conveys a deeper understanding of this raw converter and its management tools.
Thank you again for links...
