One of the many UK places we didn't have visited. Actually only spend three weeks in the Highlands a few years ago😍

Thanks for the tour of Cornwall.

Hi Photobygms, Thank You.

It's well worth the visit, plenty of small villages and beautiful coves to view and photograph. 😄

Hi Steve,

You're welcome, it's such a beautiful county, plenty of photo opps.

We didn't know for sure what the weather would be, the forecast was also a bit inconclusive.
It did actually turned out to be reasonable nice so we did enjoy a nice hike at the Balloërveld a heath nature reserve close to home.
Did go light again with only the Canon Eos R and Canon RF 24-240mm F/4-6.3 IS USM and the Canon Eos 1V and EF 24-105 F/4L IS USM.
Did do struggle sometimes with the EVF but do like the results I do get with the 24-240.
Glad I did get another copy so we both won't have to fight about who will be using that lens😂

(Did use a NISI GradND filter in some of these photos)

@davidwien, Only on the first two, Wanted to try the NiSi filters again, it did add some extra bad weather look 😆

Hi David, Thank You.

Just arrived back home, the last week down their was fairly wet and the temps. had dropped to around 17-19 C. from the mid to high 20s throughout June.

Hi Photobygms,

Love the set and particularly the skies in the first two pictures.

As I mentioned it's with some help from a NiSi GradND filter 😉

Wonderful shots all around. I like these two - the first for the nice soft look in the OOF areas and the the second one because of the great interplay of light and shadows. Very well seen and captured!

Very nice variety of images with great colors to represent this interesting area! These are my favorites - excellent work!

I was on a short vacation during the last couple of days and in true macro shooter fashion, I decided to capture the interesting colored drinking glasses the hotel we stayed at had 😁. I'm sure some people thought I'm part of the paparazzi shooting low, just over the table surface... 😅 "Don't worry, people - I'm just here for the colors and light (and drinks)!"

Color - handle with care by simple.joy, on Flickr

Macro can be a struggle, for us at least, we both do have mixed results, and no patience 😂
But I do love the results you keep posting @simplejoy.

Brilliant shots mocha.
I like the above, the fisherman, best. It's always nice to see Cornish locals rather than tourists - even though I guess I'm a tourist too!
