Hi, shopping at ALDI's :
I use the unpaved paths ... :
Many corona-walkers on the paved paths ... :
Children playing happily ... :
(I started using my 7-year-old SONY A7 as my daily camera. It fits in the pocket of my jacket with the SZ Sonnar 2,8/35 ... )

I'm quite pleased with this. It was taken with an old Samsung phone someone gave me and it's got a very poor camera but it was all I had with me today and she wanted a picture of the miserable weather to send to her mam.
The white balance is often way off so I open them as raws in CS5 and correct the WB and sometimes some of the colours need adjusting too, this time I desaturated the greens and yellows a little to get it to look more like reality.

Hi, it is amazing what you can get out of a phone today. But most phones have better cameras than my first digicam, a Minolta F300 with 5MP ...
Younger people might find us quaint, using cameras, and even reading printed newspapers ---

Hi, not home schooling, but home trimming. I got a flat-top from my wife with the tools shown. Barber shops are closed here, and will be for some more time.-
I must have my picture taken for a new passport, and I do not want to be questioned at every border ...

-3 Celsius here. We had a walk under leaden skies in a bitter wind. Home was definitely the best place.

The temperature had lifted this morning to just above freezing, but the ground was still frozen hard. Towards the end of our walk it began to rain which was disappointing, though it had been a very bleak walk indeed.

Frozen puddle, with yesterday's ice re-frozen overnight into today's shark fin (IR, 850nm)

Experimenting with my new, old Helios lens today. Those Ruskies knew a thing or two. Not the sort of results I was expecting at all.

They can be interesting wide open, giving the famous 'swirley bokeh' effect.

Apparently so. I'm looking forward to invoking the magical power of the bokeh. But today wasn't the day. Although, I did get some quite nice separation.

Another miserable, overcast day here with comedy mud everywhere.
