Hi Peter

I had a two hours chat with a friend , who lives near Melbourne (Mornington) and he told me , that summer slowly sneaks into the country . Your image obviously shows a bit of that .
I experienced weather like that only once at the atlantic coast of France . You could not see the water
from the dunes .

Hey, that's 70km from where I live! You want a coffee? Beer? Wine? :toocool:

Thanks for the invitation Dan! We are back in Amsterdam by now. We made a fantastic four weeks road trip through Spain.
Fantastic country. And the roads and the food are so good! Next year again.

And Rob, thank you for your kind comment!

Hi JotLoob

Such fogs coming from the ocean and still thick on the beach are rare here as well in Sydney as well as Mornington Peninsula ( where I had a farm for 20 years...) -.the sun was at 2 in the afternoon meaning at about its zenith so the air was hot and humid and the fog was almost backlit - the camera making things appear more clear than the naked eye...fascinating light - I wish I had some idea how best to show it ...and quite warm with temperatures at around 26Celsius.

Photographing the actual fog doesn't show much - just a gradually increasing 'thickness' into a an impenetrable denseness just 50 meters off the shoreline...these photos are straight RAW processed in C1 using Fuji profile Provia Standard...seriously fascinating liight

and yet just 20 meters closer to shore on the same beach...almost no fog...

[AlanS]

Thanks Jurgen, the thing is Hadrians wall is only 25miles from here as it happens

Greetings all,

First time posting after years of observing. Finally assembled an MFDB setup after years of collecting bits and pieces.

Here's a few from my first 2 days with the IQ250 & Sinar P3.

With Nikkor SW 90mm f/4.5 S.

With Schneider Apo-Digitar 60mm XL f/5.6.

Didn't see the 7 Ice Climbers until I got home. 60 XL.

I'm terrible with focusing and all thumbs in the field, but I'm just blown away by the quality of the files the IQ produces. It's all worth it.

Now up to me to try to be equal to the gear.

Thanks for looking and for all your posts throughout the years that showed the way.-

Here's a few from my first 2 days with the IQ250 & Sinar P3.

Welcome and a good start. Not the easiest gear to use but practice, practice, practice as they say. Look forward to seeing how you progress :thumbup:

 

[vjbelle]

Great start:thumbup: You've purchased a great back that has very good live view. Make sure that your P3 is perfectly aligned which I have found requires very accurate levels.

I have always used Peak loups for checking focus with all of my Phase backs as they are relatively moderate in price and optically excellent.

Early light on Teesdale...

Very nice Peter, I’m kind of feeling a Wes Anderson vibe with this one. :thumbup:

Lovely stuff, Peter! Manly is it, towards the north end...?

Hi Ed - spot on.

Thanks for your comment.

Bodiam Castle in East Sussex - built in the 14th century. Think about how much has changed in the world in the intervening years. And yet how similar the stars looked, back when those walls were new.
