Good advice ;-)

PS: Just testing a mobile lighting set-up so it does not meet my watch photography technical and composition criteria. Speaking about rules: Hands should have been in 10 past 10 position and date on the 25th. ;-)

Nice Akira, it’s the first time I see flatwound so close, is it an A?

Thank you, Nasos.  It is a LaBella 4E string whose gauge is 0.100".

Flatwound string.  Zuiko MC Macro 38mm/f3.5 on Fuji X-E3 via a couple of adapters and K rings.  Ca. 3.0x on an APS-C sensor.

Very Creative and colourful, Akira. I like it a lot

Thank you, Peter.  That was a quick-and-dirty shot, but I'm glad you enjoy it!

Some politicians have said we have too many oaktrees, in fact we have too little birds, eg tits will consume young catterpillars, many cases where tit nesting facilities have been installed, have reduced the plague of Haumetopoea Processionaea significantly!

Thanks Fons.

Yes, I agree. We should have more little birds and they will eat 'the problem'.
