Dunlin, one sheep I suppose is safe enough, but a bunch of them...maybe not. I heard that they can be become sometimes pets and are friendly. But other than what I read, I have no knowledge of what they are really like when actually being around them.

David, no...I didn't notice. Lens diffraction must be a myth. 😀
Dunlin,
Ah, beautiful bluebell flowers...and you got blue sky too. 😀
Hi Dunlin,
The one on the left looks like a real bruiser. 😁
Hi raythentic,
Well done for the persistence in creating the photo, 👍 I like it.
Hi Digirame,
That first photo of the yellow tulips in the foreground and the red background is stunning.
Thanks Mocha!
Hi davidwien,
The detail is indeed excellent, what lens did you use for that picture, the Exif data isn't showing at the moment.
Hi all,
A Canal walk.
Jackdaws in the forest. (Aperture f/6.3 <> (SS): 1/800 <> ISO 1250 <> EC: 0 <> PASM Mode: Shutter Priority <> Metering: Partial <> Focus Mode: AI Servo <> FL: 600mm <> Lens: Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD <> Camera ID: Canon EOS 70D).
A 'Small White' on Forget-me-nots. (Aperture f/8 <> (SS): 1/400 <> ISO 160 <> EC: 0 <> PASM Mode: Aperture Priority <> Metering: Evaluative <> Focus Mode: One Shot <> FL: 300mm <> Lens: Tamron SP 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD <> Camera ID: Canon EOS 7D Mark II).
Canal side. (Aperture f/8 <> (SS): 1/250 <> ISO 100 <> EC: 0 <> PASM Mode: Aperture Priority <> Metering: Evaluative <> Focus Mode: One Shot <> FL: 14mm <> Lens: Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM <> Camera ID: Canon EOS 70D).
Mocha,
Thanks. When I first saw that picture on the computer, that was when I realized I should have taken more like that at 15mm FL. The dark clouds showed up well in that picture too. I just love these modern cameras where we can expect good results in cloudy weather.
Lovely set Mocha, good sharing.

I wouldnt try fooling around with a blower or anything, although I did and it didnt get rid of the spots. Canon will do it for you. I cant recall whether there is in camera cleaning. I'd have to find the book. But with the R6 and other Canon mirrorless cameras the shutter is always closed when you turn the camera off and remove the lens, I havent had any problems with the R6, which does an automatic sensor clean everytime you turn the camera off. You have reminded me that it was a major concern with the RP.

In the UK we have the (native) English Bluebell - Hyacinthoides non-scripta, and the (not-native) Spanish Bluebell - Hyacinthoides hispanica. (I had to look up the scientific names).
The English Bluebell is endangered, partly due to inbreeding with the Spanish variety.Thanks Digirame.
Excellent photos mocha.
My favourite is the third, the Canal scene.Hi Mocha!
Thanks for your comments. They were playing around with the forum code this afternoon and exif info came and went. Should be back again now. The lens I used was RF24-240mm. I shoot raw and use Photolab, Topaz Sharpen AI, and Photoshop, which all help to get the best out of photos (luck also plays a part!).
David
PS: I see the exif info is stil coming and going!
Mocha,
I have noticed that sometimes you use Partial metering, and sometimes Evaluative.
Could you explain your decision-making process in determining when you use which?Thanks,
Steve Thomas
Dave, thanks for the information about the Canon RP camera. I would rather spend more to get a camera that has less problems. Where I live there are also camera stores that do sensor cleaning, but I've never had to use them or do it myself.
