Your R System Images - February 2024

[PKM-UK]

We hope you enjoy creating memorable R System images this month!

Stay safe and well…

Phil and Karen

——

Any R System images (stills or movies) can be posted. If you would like to say something about them in terms of the subject, settings, or post-processing, that will be very welcome.

Remember, you don't have to only post things you took this month - sometimes people don't get around to processing/ editing images straight after shooting them. (Think of it more as an ‘images I’d like to post here this month’ thing). Images taken with non-R System lenses are also very welcome - this adds to the interest and diversity. Images posted here will also be available to view in a dedicated Monthly R System Images Galley, which can be found Here.

Commenting on other people’s posts is encouraged, as it keeps everyone interested and coming back. (Please aim to be considerate, thoughtful and constructive). We’ll aim to provide some feedback too - but please note we are away for part of each month and busy with ‘life stuff’. The lack of a comment from us is not a sign of disfavour!

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

Thank you!

Hi Dean,

Fantastic! An inspirational image guaranteed to capture the attention of any viewer and draw them in for a closer look. They should be well impressed.

The end result is well worth your (considerable) efforts - we wouldn't know where to start - and hopefully, given enough time, your tech will recover too.

Thank you for sharing...

Hi Don,

The cub and mother (Eastern Black Rhino) were jogging around their enclosure having a fine time as we arrived at the zoo - it was a nice way to warm up...
