The weather wasn’t outstanding, so the light was challenging at times, but Joe and I got a walk in along the canal from Pencelli to Brecon and back, stopping for lunch at the Brecon Tap – excellent pies!!! You can see a few more images from the walk on Flickr …
If you’re using mobile device you may need to go to the blog to see these … The last of the images from the U3A fieldtrip, and the last pair of images from Sony A7r and iPhone 6s. Again this pairing shows that you can extract far more colour from a RAW file than a …

However I couldn’t let the “moment” pass without …
Wanting to make the most of the early morning sun, Jenny and I took the car down to the beach from my mum’s house and strolled along the path in front of the beach huts. They can’t compete with Brighton Beach in Melbourne, but they do provide a splendid splash of colour.
