    Last autumn I took a few shots with a fisheye lens at each location before wrapping it up. These landscape types came out well, I think. Anyone got tips on fisheye lens landscape motifs? (X-E4  with 7Artisans 7.5mm)

    I love these. I like your choices in stylising the colours - enough to be interesting, but not garish 👍🏻

    This is such a good suggestion. I’ve used this while on holiday when I didn’t want to carry a laptop and the results are fantastic.
    I still tend to shoot raw+jpeg, personally, as I do prefer getting things right in camera if possible. Also if the jpeg turns out well, it saves me time editing, even in camera.

    You seemed to veer towards not wanting to do any kind of raw conversion work in your original posting, so I did not mention this then, but since @Ektachrome has given you some tips to consider, it might be worth your time to consider a powerful tool built in to your camera’s playback menu, the ability to turn any raw shot into a jpeg — in camera, no external processing needed with a simple button push. I have tried it for various settings and went deep into pixel peeping the result and found no differences between the result and the same image shot as jpeg (the one from raw + jpeg).
    You could save space on your card by just shooting raw and only converting the “good” shots, all done in camera no fuss, no muss.
    Of course you can explore more options if you want:

    Ekta, That’s a great way to think of it and I think I will steal that idea whenever I am shooting something I absolutely cannot miss. No offense meant by the “safe route” comment. Blown shots are part of everyone’s photographic life and in fact, my past is littered with mounds of discarded film and photo paper- no delete button at that time. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions.

    Hi all,
     
    First post here. A few pics from a recent trip to Cornwall in the UK. Any feedback or ideas on how these could have been improved (in camera and editing) would be amazing.

    Me, using the 135FF  focal length once again for landscape. I guess that light above the lake symbolizes a phoenix, lol.

    I love using the Acros sim to guide my RAW editing. After using 20-22 MP Canon RAW's for years, it's interesting/fun to have all the latitude in these 40MP Fuji files.  Yellowstone National Park by the way.

    Mineralized Worm Moon

    The moon shines so brightly that it seems there is no color there, just bright reflected sunlight. Not even green, if you recall that the moon is made of green cheese. 😀. Actually there is a lot of color, one technique called 'Mineral Moon' brings it out. NASA has an example: https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/image_feature_819.html
    March's full moon is called The Worm Moon, on account of the soil warms up and the worms crawl out. Worm Moon goes by quite a few other names:  https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/moon/worm.html

    Auriga The Charioteer. This constellation usually shows up in the Northern Hemisphere during the late fall, early winter months. Its shape is easy to recognize and with its mainstay star Capella being so bright, it is easy to find.

    (constellation stars are listed in red, DSOs are listed in green.)
    Auriga is itself home to lots and lots of DSOs (deep sky objects --- various kinds of nebulas, galaxies, star clusters, etc.) one of these is IC 405, the Flaming Star Nebula:

    This is the equivalent of a 30 minute exposure.

    Edit: the older wider-field view has been replaced with a new version. It is still a wide field view, but it is crop - zoomed-in a bit.

    This is the equivalent of 116 minutes exposure time.
    NGC 281 also goes by the name of the Pacman Nebula.
