The problem is I cannot see the menus and set the camera up...

Wonderful experience. I´m in love with the place and want to go there more now

   Something extra resonates with me with the sunset. Minimal approach, strong contrast, vivid calma, strong graphics

Thanks.
I was walking on trail toward the tip of a promontory when I heard a swoosh sound over my head.
As I happened to have the telezoom on I just turned the camera on and upward and grabbed a few quick shots.
I realised they were flamingos only when I reviewed the shots!

You have some very nice things here, Simone - I like the beach/dusk panos, but the lookout tower and the flamingos are the obvious crowd-pleasers in the series - they certainly please me. Very romantic images, and nowt wrong with that.

Unfortunately the holiday is coming to an end; we are driving back to the airport tomorrow morning at 6:30.
One further full day in Pisa with my parents and then that's us done holidaying this summer :(

I may post a night shot later if the post-processing comes out OK, but that has to wait until I am home because this computer hasn't got enough power.

Finally back at home and at work :(
The last holidays evening has been good photographically speaking.
Working through my files, two of the night shots are worth sharing.

It is a bit like Scotland
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.
