<p>These should be labeled XT10 not TX1, wishful thinking I guess.</p><div></div>

<p>Leaves and the Setting Sun<br>

NEX 6, 16-50mm Kit Zoom</p><div></div>

<p>These next few are from this morning in the backyard after the rain stopped.</p>

<p>I used my A7, FE 90mm f/2.8 macro lens and my new Godox TT685s Flash and X1 trigger. Full TTL, HSS, and a decent pop. Flash can be a master or slave. Nicely made unit.<br>

<p>Three frames from a Sony Alpha A7r using the 28-70mm Sony f3.5-5.6 FE OSS lens. I picked up this lens fairly cheaply and was interested to compare it with the Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm f/4 ZA OSS. In my humble opinion, the "kit" lens performs very well.</p><div></div>

<p><strong>Rick</strong>, it sure i<em>s</em> a beautiful place to live. I also found the FE "kit" lens to be pretty darn good.</p>

<p><strong>Peter</strong>, nice sunrise at White Sands.</p>

<p><strong>Sanford</strong>, nice study of the Calla Lillies</p>

<p><strong>Howard</strong>, thanks for the feedback!</p>

 

<p>Thanks Louis. The Calla Lilly is the Egret of flowers. It just poses for you and looks going it.</p>

<p>Someone else's shoot</p><div></div>

<p>Luv that leaf shot Louis</p>

<p>Love the wet tulips Louis, quite beautiful.</p>
