For Keith.  I saw your Red Lion on film forum.  Taking the C with my M7 and M8 to Cornwall this Fall.

Cheers, Dan

Glad to see someone is keeping the thread alive!  My (wife's) C will be brought out of temporary hibernation and stuffed into a camera-bag when we head to Spain at the end of the month.

Look forward to seeing some of your C images! People will be getting bored with mine...

 

I doubt anyone could get bored with your photographs Keith!

Thank you. It is good to see the thread reawakened.

I have just returned from a short trip to Colombia and a quick look at some images indicate I might have some issues with my C, but need to work things out first.

Just shows what the 'C' can achieve in terms of handling saturation and highlights - brilliant (in every respect!)

First image with my "new" C.

Middle Littleton Tythe Barn, in the rain, on a dull grey afternoon.

 

 

(Now all I need to do is remember where I placed the USB for 'safe keeping' :doh: ).

Very nice Keith.

I envy your weather!

Daughter and I are heading for either Lacock or Croome Park in a while. Dull and overcast again in Gloucestershire, and now hissing down :-(

I spent a week in Medellin, Colombia recently following my main hobby of orchid species culture, My C always by my side, I found this peacock in the local shopping mall. At nearly three storeys high the whole thing was created with bedding plants. They have an annual festival of flowers in August. Quite extraordinary.

Went to Dyrham Park yesterday, in the hope of catching the leaves turning Autumn Gold. A very windy day, so most of those changing colour were also heading towards the ground.

 

One of the avenues:

 

The pathway leading to the church next to the house:

 

The house:

 

Typically, the weather at home 35 miles or so to the north was fluffy clouds with sunshine.  By the time I had reached the NT property there was heavy grey cloud with some slight mizzle. Kept the M8 and M6 in my gadget bag. The C came in handy!

Stopped at the Severn Smokery for a coffee with friends last week. 

Nice sunny day, so sat outside. I spotted this carving perched above the shop/cafe entrance.

Wasn't until I got home and looked more closely that I spotted that security light which rather spoils things, so this was the only image I kept...

Can I raise a general question, please, which is something which you will see also affects some of my own posts on earlier pages particularly from Belgium.

Looking at just this page, the first image of the Red Lion hotel, then Graham's of the Tythe Barn and the second of his latest images showing Dyrham House show what I mean.

This is not a criticism of the photographer or their work, but all the images look "flat" to me, lacking brilliance of say Keith's image of the Tower and Farnz's of the Lambretta.

As I say, I find this with some of my own shots and wonder if anyone else has noticed.....or more importantly can give explanation/advice.

[farnz]

I can't speak for Keith but I always lightly process mine before posting so that might explain the difference?  (Normally I check white balance and contrast, crop if needed and sharpen lightly.  I shoot raw and never post jpegs straight from the camera.)

Like Pete, I shoot raw (.rwl) but also .jpg.  Most of the images posted here are .rwl imported into LightRoom for tweaks as required (mostly a case of hitting the 'Auto' button in the Develop module, crop if needed and perhaps a touch of contrast. The only sharpening is the default applied by LR).  Here's one taken yesterday treated as such:-

Keep meaning to visit Dyrham (with 6x6cm and 35mm film) - it is just two junctions west along the M4, but need a new supply of 'roundtoits'!    For autumn colours Westonbirt Arboretum is closer and generally puts on a very good show but as I'm out of the country until end of the month, I might be missing the best time.  The versatile little C is generally slipped into the camera bag 'just in case'.

That's a great selfie, Keith.

Cough, splutter - good job I had just swallowed my mouthful of coffee otherwise you would owe me a new keyboard     As to owning a Canon dslr - not me, Sir!  

What is not really evident in this shot is the amount of 'bling' he was bedecked with - a true Mr Medallion man!
