*** This Week Through Your Eyes 2026.09.12 ***

Superb capture. Enough said.

Totally concur, pain in the rear and sheer determination in front. Well caught.

Congrats for your achievement, this is my pick.

mFT is the king :) This is very nice

Rainforest

I'm taking a week's holiday on the west coast of Scotland, with no wi-fi and a weak phone signal, so hope I can keep up!

On the journey we stopped briefly at the side of Loch Sunart and strolled down to a wildlife hide above the water. Another visitor, just leaving, armed with telescope claimed he had seen a White Tailed Eagle sitting in a tree. Lo and behold, when I looked with the aid of the trusty old Oly plastic fantastic, there was not only an eagle in the tree, but an actual nest! And two huge eagles! ... very far away 😉

Zoom in and you can make out the nest - a huge platform of branches - with a big bird sitting on it. I looked it up when I got the chance, and apparently the 'chicks' just fledged a couple of days ago (started flying around.)

The Ardnamurchan peninsula has some of the best remnants of rare Celtic Rainforest, so we spent this morning exploring some beautiful oak and birch woodland - in the rain 😁

Chicago was fun to visit. I have not been able to do much weeding-out and processing (too busy with work). But, here's one I quickly fiddled with. Another picture of a building. There are many more. It's Chicago! The 14-24 is nice to have in these instances.

Lovely contrast of warm and cool light, and great sense of place.

Another vote for the black.

My first 'proper' digital camera was an LX 5 which I loved, so the LX10 does sound like an attractive proposition. However, I'm not in a position to contemplate replacing or adding cameras just now...hope the EM5 II keeps going for the time being...

Just fantastic!

These are exquisite Chris. Were they actually taken this week or did you process them this week? I'd have thought it a bit late in the season for such beauties.

I like the perspective in this. I'm enjoying the architecture without getting a pain in the neck 😁

Reminds me of those terrible sports "Cross Country" lessons I hated at school. I liked this one very much.

Really nice set this week. These places are always relaxing.

I presume you factored in the rain that seems ever present in Scotland.

I really like this shot with the ancient pathway.

Imposing comes to mind. Nice one.

Looks like cinematic scene with its colours.

To me new Pen looks like repackaged into different body OM-5. I had OM-5 and its main issue was that it felt bit too cramped on right side, I had issue with focus point moving accidentally due to navigation pad button press with my palm. And usage with gloves was not good due to small and not very prominent back buttons. OM-3 is bit bigger and the inadvertent button press does not occur very often but small button issue remains. From reviews seems like handling of Pen is similar to OM-5 so it seems step backward from OM-3 and I will wait better offers. My ideal camera would be OM-1/OM-3 innard packaged into smaller body with tilt screen (or tilt and articulated) and back buttons implemented with Hasselblad-style design, leaving more room for handholding and not sacrificing usability. But I'm afraid that with current technology it's not possible, maybe after generation or two the power consumption efficiency and performance will increase enough so that it can be packaged into smaller body.

Wow, strikingly great image: the light and shadows, movement.
