Very nice shooting, and I love Oly...my first digital was an Oly C720 and it was amazing to me.
However.......your Oly is a Toy Camera...it fits the definition of my pixel peeping FF shooter friend that has defined them. It's OK, you are in denial, and so are many others here. I was hoping to hear some "True Confessions", some crying and tear jerk stories of those admitting they are at heart...Toy Camera shooters. Not many want to confess.....like I did. I'm proud I did, head up high, and boldly going where no "Big Boy" camera can go! I feel so liberated! No one expects much out of me, and so I don't disappoint...it's such a relief!
Example...I shot this cow earlier today. A real camera shooter would frame the shot, maybe nudge the foreground cow out of the way, or lean over the fence to frame better. Not me! I just shoot it an move on, and no one cares, they just say "What do you expect from a Toy Camera shooter?"
