Often I go to a location where there is agriculture, old orchards, farmhouses, in a word you find a lot of small things there and also a wide lanscape if clouds and sky are promising. This time it was the small things and this garden with early autumn colors. Olympus EM5 with Nocticron 42.5 mm

Our Botanical Garden is worth a visit any time and a rainstorm leaves its own attractions. These blossoms did n o t undergo any rearrangement. Olympus OMD EM5 with the new Leica/Panasonic Nocticron 42.5-1.2 Asph.

these last days we were what april usually is: a mix of rain, gusts, and sunshine - all in all a bit cool also. When in the evening it became a bit more calm I sneaked out into our adjacent park landscape. Canon 5D MKII with Elmarit R 28 mm, polrisation filter and graded ND filter.

these are from my visit to a nearby forest. In spite of being perfumed we we under attack of midges living on a close cow meadow. We thought it woud be dark soon, so the dark side of the forest had its showdown. Light was fading quickly here. All with Canon 5D MKII and Elmarit R 60 mm macro on tripod.

my favourite newly discovered forest unfolds its magic by and by. Every time I go thee it offers something new. Canon 5D MKII and my favourite Elmarit R 60 mm macro lens + polarizer
-
I started out with my X1 and 2 new achromats to find good targets. Whereas for this our local Botanical Garden is rich in details I wanted to find equal variety on a near meadow but for this my newly aquired lenses have to wait. You may have look what could be found. last sunshine on this part of the meadow with different texture of green with achromat Series 7 + series 6, series 7 mounted directly with adapter, series 6 mounted on an adapter and handheld in front of no 7 MF macro setting X1
-
Weather was all day very dull. As soon as a soft hopeful light appeared in the early evening I sneaked out, snatched my X1 in case I might find something motivating.
-
when we are invited I do not leave the house without my X1. In this case I packed also 2 achromats. And yes, there was a surprise. A white sheet of paper helped lighting up a bit from below.
-
this house I found in our city - taking out my X1 and its 2 achromats for a walk. the season of fall colors now started and each day one can find something else in different light.
-
Since we don't have much else to offer than rain these days here in North Germany I think some green leaves with water drops might express how we are feeling like. Elmarit R-90mm on MKII under the assistance of a raincover did the job. Keep an eye on your lens and a cloth ready. Thanks for looking

Hello all, A question from a quite new M8 user. I'm often dissatisfied with the colors I get, especially with grass and leaves that come out more yellow-brownish than I like. Maybe even more pronounced in cloudy weather. It has been discussed here before, but some of the threads are old and maybe outdated? Manual and Auto WB doesn't make a big difference. I use a coded Summarit with original UV/IR filter and open the DNG files in Capture One 6.2 using the M8 Generic UV/IR profile. Save as TIFF 8-bit and sRGB color, and then work with this file further in Photoshop Elements 8.0 (adjust levels, remove color cast, convert to Jpeg....etc.) Is there a simple way to "standardize" this workflow so that I can come closer to the colors I want? Should I use the saturation and hue sliders, for instance? and what value/amount? Are there alternative color profiles I can use in Capture One besides the two M8 profiles that came with the program? I'm glad to hear what others have found out, especially those who use Capture One to make TIFF files. My monitor is not professionally calibrated but I feel it is quite correct, as the Jpegs from my Olympus E-PL1 seem very good (and Olympus is known for good colors stright out of camera ) I know the M8 needs more work to get it right, but all say this is possible. I love using the camera, and pictures are incredibly sharp even with sharpening disabled (as I use). from Geir

First post in a long time. My M8 and 35mm Cron lens has been in for warranty repair, twice, Leica New Jersey did great. This is one of the first test shots. Waited for a sunny day in Telluride to shoot Bridal Veil Falls. The building in upper left is the old power plant. Telluride was the first AC electrically lit city in the Northern Hemisphere. A family lives there now.
