Frank: that vest in combination with the sun glasses is "perfect".  Looking forward to see this attire in real life :D

I bring my stealth gear extreme photographers smock.

It is much warmer, but the pockets are big enough to put some real equipment in it.

April 27

Ornithógalum umbellátum

D500, 300mm f/2.8

Lovely shot, Fons.  Nice placement of the flowers.


Little red rose - created a profile with the colorchecker for more accurate color, independent of my interpretation
D800 Sigma 150mm macro


It should be the one in your garden.  Looks so elegant!

Think of the vest as just a tool that you use to get extra lenses and heavy small items on and off aircraft - to be put away in your luggage when you arrive at your destination.  ;)

the vest looks shitty but is not practical

Gorgeous color, Fons!  Did you use CRT?

Elegant flowers, John!

My last picture of the month is a tad experimental.

I had the 14e3 TC on the 300PF to bring it to 420mm optical and then added a Canon 500D Diopter to the front. It is quite a Jakov style combination I guess. Very smooth grdients and a bit of a dreamy overlay:

Frank, I like the first (left) one.  But I would have to say that these look essentially different from Jakov's style: there are focused points in both images, whereas the images of his style are totally out of focus!  :D
