Your R System Images - June 2024

[Bucolic Old Sir Henry]

Rapidly approaching the end of our UK and Europe holiday, relaxing with a friend in his house looking over Girona (north of Barcelona). It’s been raining a fair bit, which is welcome after a couple of very dry years, if less than ideal from our point of view - but last night the weather cleared briefly at sunset…

• Canon EOS R6
• RF70-200mm F4 L IS USM
• 70.0 mm
• ƒ/4.5
• 1/200 sec
• ISO 800

Processed in Lightroom on my iPad.

Sunny today, but with a chilly (for Spain) wind.

We are lucky to have several pairs of Robins around our garden, presently busy feeding their young.

Hi NIck,

Robins are so full of joy and character - you've capture these shots beautifully, with wonderful poses, fine feather detail and eye catch-light.

Thank you for sharing...

Lunch out yesterday with my wife, she had the fried shrimp platter, I had calamari and a couple of shrimp tacos. I wouldn't normally use my R7 for food photography but it was in the car with us.

Hi Chris,

Well captured, with just the right mix of detail and blur and rich colours. Of course, you've gone and made everyone feel incredibly peckish now.

Thank you for sharing (the images - though, sadly, not the food)...

Hi Gareth,

We thought of you while we we on our recent tour (a couple of warm and sunny days before the rain realised we were on holiday and caught us up).

Hopefully you enjoyed your stay in the UK (and you didn't get too wet).

A very fine and pleasing composition here, with a glorious sky hanging above an idyllic looking vista - perfectly complimented by the gentle haze.

Thank you for sharing...

Thanks! I thought of your trips to Chester Zoo as we passed by on a train to Flint…

We seemed to escape the worst of the weather, or at least were indoors when it poured, but it would be nice to warm up at some point.

Here’s a chough we saw while walking a bit of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, just to prove that we got good weather occasionally.

Hi Gareth,

Good weather in Wales - you did extremely well...

(Absolutely superb image by the way).

Hi Mike,

Terrific images which emphasise the drama and the intensity of the unfolding action.

Beautifully captured and composed with deep/ rich colours and the right mix of movement blur/ detail.

(Takes me back a few years to when I still rode - though never raced - these wonderful machines).

Well done - and thank you for sharing...
