Matt Ashmore 697 Posted February 1 February might be just an hour or two old but it's snowed so I had a quick walk around outside with a camera and uploaded to Live News. I quite like these two. RX100M3 in night scene mode for the first time ever (for me) proved a mixed bag.. these two were saved JPEG in camera (didn't save as RAW for some reason). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the night mode only makes jpegs. Might be the same with other special modes. Paulette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starsphinx 258 Posted February 1 Took this one of my town - unusual for me as I don't lean towards landscapes. I was not even sure there would be anything to photograph as visibility wasn't brilliant but glad I made the effort and I am quite pleased with this one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know you have health problems from your previous posts but walking down to church and back Sundays must help to keep you fit. Allan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allan I am not sure there are services in St Mary - it is a historical building (lots in Bradford on Avon are) and just happens to have this fantastic view - its probably about half to 3/4 of a mile from me - and not too much hill as I also live "up top". The whole bit where its located is very picturesque - views, old buildings, plants, birds etc. Photography certainly helps me keep fit - it gives me a reason to go out, motivates me to get moving - I even run if I have to lol. Then on the days where the body is not working I can sift through my files and if there isn't anything wait to be done (there nearly always is lol) I will go back over archives and look at shots taken a while ago and maybe reprocess some of them where I feel I have developed a better understanding.

Wonderful atmosphere/feeling to this shot. The colour cast, fog, snow, is perfect for the subject matter. Looks like a Monet. https://www.metmuseum.org/toah/works-of-art/56.135.6/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most well-known landmarks have been photographed zillions of times. I try to update those types of images as often as possible, even if it doesn't earn marks for originality.
