Your R System Images - September 2026

PKM-UK · 2026-09-01T07:30:52+0100

We hope you enjoy creating fantastic images this month!

Have fun - but stay safe and well…

Service Announcement: Due to ongoing family support commitments our responses on here will be minimal for the time being - as usual, the lack of a comment from us is not a sign of any disfavour! Normal service will resume (eventually) but for now, please bear with us - ’tis life…

----

Any R System images can be posted. If you would like to say something about the subject, settings, or processing, that will be very welcome.

Remember, you don't have to only post things you took this month - sometimes people don't have time to process/ edit images straight away. (Think of it more as an ‘images I’d like to post here this month’ sort of thing). Images taken with non-R System lenses are also very welcome.

Images posted on this thread will also be available to view in the dedicated Monthly R System Images Gallery.

Commenting on people’s posts is encouraged as it keeps everyone interested and coming back. (Please be considerate, thoughtful and constructive).

Finally, please post in accordance with the RF Shooters Community Guidelines.

Thank you!

3. Originally known as Striguil (derived from the Welsh word ystraigl meaning ‘river bend’), it was the southernmost of a chain of castles built in the Welsh Marches. It took the name of the adjoining market town in about the 14th century.

4. The castle was once owned by the legendary medieval knight William Marshal - regarded as the greatest knight that ever lived - who negotiated the Magna Carta and served five successive English monarchs: Henry II, Henry the Young King, Richard the Lionheart, King John, and Henry III.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

(Lewis Carroll. Can I have some of what he was on, please?)
