To show I'm not always making "strange" images, here is my standard version of the 'eternity and beyond' picture posted a couple of days ago, then in IR. This visible-light version is by the veteran Zoom-Nikkor 50-300mm f/4.5 Nikkor ED on my Z9. I usually have that lens floating around in the trunk of my car, for the odd non-planned shot. It delivers fine imagery even with the Z9.

By the way, I personally still prefer the IR version of the scene. But that's me in a nutshell. 'Red' is my colour.

Nice stuff. Colour range might not be to everyone's taste, but there should be options available for most customers.

Tomorrow I'm going to the Mula market to buy tomatoes and bread to make salmorejo. I'll try to stop by the lingerie stand and take a photo so you can see the colorful bras and panties.

Well captured Daniel.

The hedgehog is an introduced an introduced species to New Zealand, but thankfully not here in Australia (the Aussies got foxes instead!). 

Although known as ground dwellers, night vision cameras in NZ have seen hedgehogs climb into birds nests and eat the eggs - including the eggs of native bird species in decline.  So not quite the harmless critter that many people suppose that they are.  Have also been suspected as a vector for carrying TB into dairy herds.
