I've been telling people I know that I have to scout locations before a shoot "you can't just randomly drive a direction and expect to find great places to shoot with a model"... Today it was the second time exactly that very thing happened to me. I think it is about time I stop making up silly rules for myself :-)
Took a lot of shots in and around this old storage shed in the middle of nowhere, actually so much in the middle of nowhere that this is the only geotagged photo on Flickr from this place :-)

@ Photobug - yeah, shooting at Pensacola would be a real blast, especially if the Blues were there practicing.

here's one of the 108 skydiver group coming in for a landing -

Adam Zdebel inspired me to dial up the contrast and saturation in Viveza. Good advice Adam!

Another from the old storage shed my model Maria and I randomly came across.
The fishing net and the leaves were lying inside and I just hung them up. Strange thing about this shed was that it just had this window, no door :-)

Not sure why I got the minus 1. Perhaps the non Nikon body? This will really annoy whoever it is because it's another A7RII shot - Edited to add...Got a second - must have outstayed my welcome...

On Brecon canal, after dark - one of the areas that the camera struggles (in common with most mirrorless) is low light focussing. Used a Tamron 24 - 70 with the Sony adaptor dialled in the focal distance I wanted (I find the electronic one with FE lenses a bit imprecise)

A7R II Tamron 24 - 70 f/11 2 mins ISO 100

The person that did the minus on you @itsnotmeyouknow did so with quite a few others too, can't really say I saw a pattern behind the "rewards"

@itsnotmeyouknow: Don't worry about the -1, it is just someone who doesn't want to articulate his disagreement.

I will however take this opportunity to remind you that you can only post one image per 24hrs on PAD.

I'm aware of that - I was quoting the previous day's photo, so have only posted one...
