One can lose track of photographs when one takes a great many, and after a little recent organisation of files I came across sets from 2019 which had been overlooked. A couple of country drives not long after my birthday that year took us to some spots in the south, and this particular shot was taken in the late afternoon from Crow’s Nest Lookout, which is on the hills above the south coast. At the time (April 16th, 2019) I was giving another camera a workout—it’s still on standby for when my old S5600 finally gives up the ghost. This is an exercise in how the chip handles high contrast, looking past trees silhouetted in the light of the low sun. The gradient of colour in the sky is quite amazing, and the image has a great deal of “body” to it. The chip handles the conditions very nicely indeed—I must use this camera more! Note the super-wide format selected, and the higher DPI. Minor enhancement only—some gamma adjustment in effort to pull out detail in the foreground. Fuji FinePix HS10. Image by Mike.
