Planning Shots for Wind Pump Photographs
The main object of yesterday's landscape day was to use a wide -angle set up with filters to achieve some 'classic' Norfolk views. I used my compact (X100V) as a planning tool to see what compositions might work and what colour and 'information' might be achievable. The X100V has a built-in neutral density filter and also a HDR mode producing a raw file both very useful for this task. I find I can handhold to 1/8th sec. These are raws from the camera at ISO160 with no noise reduction or sharpening.

Welney Insects after a Rain Shower 1.
There were a few showers around on Wednesday at Welney and this seemed to encourage the insects to come out in the open. Lots of flies, Ladybirds, Plant bugs etc provided material for the lens. We also spent a considerable time trying to photograph the House Martins coming in and out of their nests.
