Thanks, you’re very kind. These are from the recent trip with X-T2 / 18-55. The same shoot-and-run scenario as before 😀. I had a polariser and I wonder if the skies turned out a bit too dark. We have sunshine here, this week Merlin did not steal all of it for himself, but -2 deg. Celsius in the morning, so we are still good to go with winter themes, aren’t we. I like your adventurous edits from March 10, the trees on white and the deep blue water.

Passo Sella

No ! Not yet.

Good to see you back in action ! Thanks for sharing.

Wow ! Epic.

Free parking (if you can drive up a steep snow covered slope to ~ 3.300m above sea level).

"The resulting pattern on the snow is known as corduroy, and is widely regarded as a good surface on which to ski or ride." Wikipedia: Snow Grooming. This one is from Slovakia, 2013, Canon.

Thanks ! After they prepare the ski slope by the ratracs, that is what it looks like before the skiers ski on it.

Sorry, I do have the Magmod but no "speedlight" type Godox flash at hand at the moment, so I can't help. But tapping it w/o the magnets seems not to cause it to fire, so I would not consider this a warranty case.

I understand your concern about the "thumping". I transport my 90 in vertical orientation to avoid that.

You already know the grand scheme of things: an obscenely beautiful landscape, gorgeous weather and a clueless lucky tourist hastily snapping away quick shots on a family holiday. But I will post a few more, I reckon it would be wrong not to share the incredible beauty of these mountains. The Sella Towers.

Good one. Btw, is moss edible ? My son called me a goat today. (When I caught him, he said cool down Dad, that means "Greatest of All Things":).

It seems to me, when Enzio takes a walk, all manner of creatures stop whatever they are doing and pose for him. Hey Enzio, was this commissioned by National Geography ? You are incredible.

Are you teaching me English again, Merlin ? I lichens it 🙂. And I am glad you didn’t leave out the “the” 😀 . You are very kind as usual, but it was a day with glorious weather in a beautiful location, so I was more lucky than anything else. Thanks a lot, cheers !

It does not sound stupid to me, I think something like that can happen to anyone. I am sorry for your bad luck, but I find it difficult to suggest anything, without having it in my hands. I think you should send it to Fuji for repair. There can be some damage inside, too, that is not apparent now, but can cause further damage later on. Good luck.
