I see we're now having to explain how we came up with the time to
shoot our pics. Sigh.
I'm beginning to feel I can almost tell the output of the E-3 by the
colors. It's different from the E-1, but I don't like it less. I was
shooting wildflowers yesterday (for those monitoring, it was a Sunday
-- I don't work Sundays), and that makes me appreciate the iris all
be-dewed. I settled into a pattern of shooting at -.7 exp comp to
hold all the highlights in the flowers. You've done a nice job with
that flower.
I think the photos are all done well, though I wouldn't call them
arty, really (except maybe for the rainbow?). I think the coots are
the cutest, the bokeh on the flower shot is great, but I think the
last one is my favorite.
