    Excellent images. With a fisheye unwanted digits are always a possibility :).

    I've had to reshoot because of feet in the frame before, but never fingers until yesterday, and it happened in almost all of my shots! Oh well, they cropped OK. Thanks for your comments!

    Nicely done. And no fingers! 😂

    Only one camera went out with me today, armed with the A50f2.8 Macro and the 1.4x-S converter which was sometimes on the camera, sometimes off. I came away with a few shots I think are decent.
    Here's the best of the bunch.

    June 10 2023. Cornfield in UV. Kolari Vision modified full spectrum Pentax K-1 with Asahi Optical Super Takumar 35mm. Hoya U-360 (2mm thick) and Schott S8612 (2mm thick) filter stack. ISO 6400, F4.5 @ 1/60. According to the Weather Channel this is a class 10 UV day. Even then, in full sunlight, it takes ISO 6400 for decent aperture handheld.UV light accentuates haze.
    Thanks for Looking,

    I didn't get much worth a darn today. Most of my images looked muddy with weird color, so converting to monochrome helped most of them some. Here's today's catch.

    I'm kind of upset tonight. I found a fairly decent size scratch on the barrel of one of my lenses that I don't think was there earlier today, and I can't figure out how it got there. It's just cosmetic, but given how much I baby my stuff and how hard I try to keep everything nice, it really twists my noodle. I've ordered a paint pen that should cover the damage easily, but the mystery remains... how long has it been there and where did it come from?

    Oh well... on with today's photos.

    Thanks barondla!

    It was a photo heavy day today. I took probably 40 photos in total, keeping 19. A dozen or so were shot in the backyard of the wife's arrangement of petunias in the sunlight, and the remainder were shot on the daily walkabout where I had a "getting to know you again" session with my telephoto lens. Here's today's catch.

    June 13 2023. Wild discovery today. Using Kolari Vision full spectrum modified Pentax K-1 with Pentax SMC-A 15mm and internal 056 orange filter. This gives IR with wild color. Didn't realize IR could be taken without a bonafide IR filter. On other lenses I usually use Hoya R72. The 15mm doesn't take external filters. No telling what I can get with color channel mixing. ISO 100, F8, 1/40.

    Another excellent and interesting image, barondla!

    I shot 26 photos today, tossed 12 and kept 14. One of my objectives for this month is to shoot less and keep more. Not sure I'm succeeding, but I was pretty happy with today's keepers.
    Here's a couple for this daily challenge.

    I had a fairly frustrating day with my macro lens trying to get a clean shot of some blue flowers at 1:1. I failed to get a shot due to wind, camera shake, both, or just plain bad manual focus. I find I often struggle using this lens. The shallow depth of field at f2.8 makes finding the plane of focus difficult when magnification gets high.

    Anyway, here's today's catch.
