Nikon DF

I've been driving past this tree for 5 years and never taken a shot. This year the farmer had very kindly given me this composition with the tractors tyre tracks. Crap lighting and zero detail in the sky but at least i know it works so will have to return with a bit of nice early morning light and some fluffy clouds. I did a long exposure shot (5 minutes) but it didn't really look to dissimilar to this one.

Can't help but think this would be great done like that Italian Landscape guy who does the really vivid yelllow green and blue (yes I know you'd need the colours there to start with :LOL:). Definitely a good one to revisit though, and such a thoughtful farmer you have there (y)

Typical photographer. Family members can have any coat they like as long as it's red! Same goes for their brollys :)

And the shoes! :D

Got my hands on a 50mm F1.8g yesterday so it would be rude not to try it out!

Nice shots David, is that coat really bright red or is it my phone.
 
Really like the pp on this one and the sun helps, your lucky she don't mind that camera stuffed in her face.

Yes, really bright but the PP has really made it pop.

As much as people may not think so, it's not too far from SOOC other than the conversion and a bit of cloning.

Tried a Df at the Photo show today. Quirky but I have GAS now.

Thing is do I sell the X-Pro2 for one or not, big decision to make!

It's a big bugger isn't it? :eek:

Df GAS is the worst. It won't subside until you're caressing it's dials.

I have your files @wibbly I went out especially this evening for you. All 'less than perfect' too ;)

:LOL:
