Been out for some more foresty stuff this afternoon (flattest light I've shot in for a while unfortunately, so had to work hard in LR!)

That why I had to disable the right cursor button, I was going to fall out with it if I hadn't and so glad I did - much cheaper than getting the XT2 back

I wonder if it is the right cursor button I catch

A wee bit of recent urbex...

Three very good shots Brian, just love the second mono one as it looks good dark and moody.

Well I think you did a great job, lovely colours and lighting.

Total long shot, but thats not Thoresby is it?

Thanks Dave, managed to get it to have a similar colour palette and tonal range to the others i have taken so far, so they look like a coherent series. Have a few more so will throw them up soon (ish)

No, near Sandhurst in Berkshire.

For anyone interested, here is a chart showing the close focus capabilities of all Fuji lenses and the magnification the macro rings offer.

http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/accessories/pdf/mcex_01.pdf

Pretty clear that the best options are the 60mm, obviously, then the 27mm and both 35mm lenses. Other lenses can get closer but the working distance renders that practically useless

Very nice indeed Sir, still with a bit of light in the sky and some good reflections.

I'm well used to manual lenses I have a Nikon adapter with nothing to use with it really so looking about for something to stick on there

The 28mm ais Nikkor is an "Excellent" lens Sir, and performs very well indeed on an X-T1 or X-T2.

"Reversed it'll give a scene view of 11.5mm, and reversed with a full set of Nikon fit tubes it'll give a scene view of 5.5mm which equals close on 4.5 times life size"

Can anyone recommend a location for urban decay around the derby / chesterfield / Notts area? I've not been out and shot anything for coming up 4 months now and I have my lovely xt2 and xpro2 just sat here with lenses longing for for action.

I asked my wife if she had seen any on her travels and she asked if I was buying her make up...

Sadly I get that bought the missus some of that crap for Christmas

Autumn is here now, and a great time to get out and shoot is when the leaves begin to change colour. Just head out into some abandoned urban areas and see what you find. Part of the fun is the discovery.

 

[dibbly dobbler]

Thanks to all that commented on my bridge pic - it's appreciated

 

[BacktotheFuji]

Problem is, we don't seem to have any abandoned areas down south Only kidding, I've missed a few opportunities recently to shoot abandoned piers and churches, which is a shame.Work is taking over

Well, turns out that this shot has become my first explored photograph on Flickr

I Know it really doesn't mean anything, but it's still quite a nice feeling for a Tuesday morning!

Like that a lot. The colours, leading lines, and hints of cloud in the night sky.

 

[Peter123]

Does anyone know, on the T20, when using exposure bracketing (it takes 3 shots) does it refocus for each shot?

Cracking photo David, with great reflections and lighting.
