Excerpts from a recent visit to Humboldt Redwoods in Northern California, home to some of the oldest and tallest trees on the planet. And if you are lucky to visit them right after rains, it's pure magic! (All pics with Leica X2)

I guess first time in my life I saw rainbow appear and disappear while I stood still shooting and enjoying the experience. I tried to create a two minute video from my stills. Better than stills, it gives you the idea of sunshine moving across the hill and rainbow appearing. Clouds, sunshine and rain was moving away from us. Enjoy. https://www.facebook.com/photoutdoors/videos/532740986898602/ Later in the evening I will upload a still from this. I used M240+28Cron ASPH and adjusted the WB, exposure and local processing in LR5.

Nature will get it back? Who will take over - These questions are very present at that location in Duisburg, Industrial Park North. Colours merge, the rusty red with the green, the grey with the blue sky and so forth. Leica Q

Last weekend the fall colours were at its peak,. Temperatures were extremely mild being up to 20!° Celsius. No rain had fallen, so there was a dream of goldrush because the foliage was almost complete. I was at the location at 7:30. It was just in time for getting the glow on the pond. Yet it remained half shaded because the rocks were locking the sun. The sky was deep blue and a pale morning moon was still there. All with Olympus and Nocticron 43 mm/ 1.2

These are very tranquil mild october days here. The sun, if it comes out is already very low. It then spreads a warm golden light. Wen I go to work I cross a little park and took my X1 to get the last glowing colors before they will be torn be one of those storms later on. X1 in the morning in a slightly humid air

Here are now somes samples of golden autumn colors. The trees have only started now turning into yellow. I wonder whether there will be really strong colors his year. I think one has to wait a bit more. Still, deep in the forest there is much green. Canon 5D MKII with Elmarit R 28 mm

Here are a few images I captured in a harbour in Kephalonia. The loggerheads turtles feed off the scraps thrown by fishermen and one of the only permanent colonies of the migratory sea turtles. All of these are taken with my m9 and 50mm Summarit. Not underwater though some look like it!

Having my M9 stuck in repair for a sensor replacement for 7 weeks and being told it would be at least another 6 weeks to get sorted, I decided on the spur of the moment that the only answer was to trade in my M7 and get a M240. The annoying thing is that the M9 went in for an unrelated problem and they said "whilst it is here we will replace the sensor for you". However I now have the M240 and took the first test shots with it today. The location was my back garden (not the most inspiring place in the world) and I was quite pleased with this one out of the very few I took. The lens was my

walking through a forest growing on sandy soil we found a manifold variety of photographic attractions. My mushroom collection I'll show later. On a meadow with grass and heath there were hundreds of cobwebs shining in the late morning light. We could have spent hours to crouch, lying in the mud, trying to get a clou how to frame this fluffy stuff. I am afraid this series lost a lot of details due to compression to forum size. But you may yet have a look at this attempt. all with Canon 5D MKII, Elmarit R 60 mm + Leica Apo 2x converter,tripod.
