Two versions of THE mouse. Why $1250 for a four-inch figurine? I suspect some of the statue is covered with real gemstones, for example the face and end of the scepter look as if they are covered by tiny diamonds.Not sure whether the red areas are covered by tiny rubies. I guess these are sometimes sold, as there are a great variety of them on offer and I've seen similar items decades past when we've visited Disney World.

Stained glass at sunset...



Made with the GX-7 and the f4-5.6 35-100

I'm aware I nibbled the top a bit. I had framed it slightly better but it was so crooked I had to straighten a little - very slight - and even that isn't perfect but is the best balance between crooked and lost top.

The shot was made during the waiting for a Choir performance - I didn't have a lot of time to recompose I'm afraid. I love the colors and the bright sun obscured by the glass.

The colors in that glass, in that light, are very easy on the eye. A soothing image.
I've lost the tops of various items by either: 1) paying too much attention to not clipping the bottom during the exposure; OR 2) having the camera tilted during exposure, and losing the top during PP straightening. I try to remember too avoid framing too closely on the scene, use wider angle or step back a bit, but of course in the event. I don't.

Three squirt-up fountains at Disney World. The first one simulates a geyser.

Hands of a musician, and the original image before cropping. The Oly 12-100mm time after time has impressed me with its capabilities.

Great shot. I like the colours, also. The detail looks pretty good!

The Lumix 12-60 f3.5-5.6 comes as close to my ideal of a compact standard zoom lens with high-end optics as is currently available in m43. While it's not quite as good as premium m43 glass, it's really quite close, with excellent sharpness across most of the frame, and very good contrast and nice color rendering. Its weather resistant and weighs only a little over 200 grams.
I am also a fan of the lighter 12-60; light, cheap in kit-breakout sales and sealed. My ideal range for a long hike, and I can add my smc-M 100/2.8 or the 40-150 Lumix for longer shots.
