Just fooled around with some Sunbounce equipment. I took this shot with an Olympus PEN-F and the Olympus 75 mm f1.8 (I absolutely love this lens), did some minor tweaks in Photoshop CC, and added a Nik Analog Efex filter. I think it turned out okay for a mere test-shot.

Wish I could get results like that just fooling around....

Yet another waterfall. Comments always appreciated.

Thank you. :) I guess one can't do much wrong with a beautiful lady on location. :D I'd like to shoot waterfalls as well, but there are only so many here in Germany and most are not even close to my region, so I have to make due with people. ;)

Here's one I put a little more thought into prior to the actual shooting. This picture consists of three separate shots all rolled into one thanks to the magic that is Adobe Photoshop. I used my PEN-F and the Olympus 17 mm f1.8 (which kind of disappoints regarding sharpness, but the super-sharp 75 mm would've been too narrow) with an attached ND-filter for the two long exposures to get some movement in the background, then detached the filter and added some mild flash for the actual portrait shot. It seems to have turned out okay, because the girl in the picture had this turned into a huge poster. :D

I think the earlier one was better. Not enough interesting light here for me.
Keep them coming though.

The Highway Dep't has been doing these floral plantings along some of the major roads . I guess to break up the monotony of driving , sorta like Monet on the highway .
