Ha ha ha ha...... Are you away from home at the moment.... ?

I’ve been away for a couple days short of 6 weeks. Back Wednesday night.

So here's something I'm curious about.. If you shoot in black and white does the camera actually shoot in black and white or is there a trick.

I opened a black and white raw (CR2) in preview on my mac and despite the thumbnail being in black and white the preview was colour !!

There's no benefit to shooting in black and white.. you may as well shoot colour and then you have 2 for the price of 1 once you edit it to black and white.

the camera always shoots in colour , all effects incl b&w are done by the electronics .

Cool, explains the difference between the raw and jpeg. Cheers Jack.

Not sure I'd 100% agree. If your looking for a B&W image, shooting in B&W gives you immediate feedback on the composition. If the raw image is always colour then you get your 2-4-1.

I take your point, however, on the flip side of that coin you may take an image that you think will look great in B+W but when you get it back into lightroom you realise it's better in colour but it's too late as you only have the B+W image.

There's certainly nothing wrong in shooting in B+W. I just prefer the safety net of colour.

So shutter speed, is 8 years too slow?

thats an amazing image , I always imagined that the sun moved in a perfect arc , that clearly shows it doesn't .

Hmmm......perfect circles don't occur in nature, so I suppose that a perfect arc/orbit, etc. is also not possible??
Or something along those lines??

[Jack]

your eyes have circles in them as do flowers , egg yolks etc etc etc

I'll need to Google it because we all know my memory isn't great, but I'm reasonably sure that the earth has a little wobble to it, like it resonates.

The Earth's circumference is also not uniform.... it's "fatter" around the Equator than around the poles - not by much...around 100 miles or so, if memory serves.

can relate

Yeah..... I'm experiencing a "lower centre of gravity" myself these days. Handling hasn't improved, sadly.

Chuffed to capture this little guy. Granted not the best deer pic on the planet, but it's my first and feck me do they move fast in the woods.

OK, so this photography stuff isn't as easy as it looks... I think I'm getting a little better, but there is a lot more to learn yet..

[D41]

Are you kidding?? Look at all those colours in the first photo.....it looks great.

The bottom pic looks like Alderaan, right before-....well, we all know what happened to Alderaan. Shame about that.

Every time I go out with my camera I am learning something new, what not to do, and what works.... thats what make it fun. The other night i tried to to get some stars and a shiny moon.

Post processing.

So what do you use?

I've started a trial with lightroom, but the subscription model is a tad pricey. I'm using a Mac if it makes any difference to suggestions.
