Spring is just around the corner in the northern hemisphere, and autumn beckons in the south. So, lots of opportunities to exercise our L mount gear and post the results here. But usual rules apply, so feel free to post images taken earlier - the only constraint is that the image should be taken with an L mount camera (and lens, obviously!). I’m off the Scotland next week so hope to have some images to share from there.

These are fairly small lumps in the ground (max elevation about 1400'), but with a bit of white stuff on the top and a long perspective, you can imagine them as being much bigger!

Two photos taken with the S5M2 from a lookout on the Illawarra escarpment looking towards the city of Wollongong and the Pacific Ocean.

The first is with the LUMIX 14-28 at 14mm while the second is with the 70-300 at 70mm.

And the reason I was up at the lookout: to capture a heritage train that was passing through. This was taken with the 70-300 at 300mm.

Very nice Pete. That shot at 300mm looks like good.

Storks are back and a little hike near my town. First one is a 100% crop, very distant (300mm)PANA0356_1600.jpgPANA0428.jpg

Very nice. Love the shot of the pigs, and of course the storks. We never get storks in the UK.
This patch of nature "Reestdal", <10 minutes by car north from our small town, has a lot of them. That farmhouse Is very typical in this part of the Netherlands. Once when there were hardly any storks left and they opened a sanctuary. Now they are flourishing, in the field I could easily spot 6 or 7 foraging together. That tiny small brown creek is part of the border of two provinces :)

I've just made one. You can add your images there now:

 
Here is another of the heritage train I followed last weekend. It ran from Sydney down the Illawarra line to Wollongong.

I cropped this photo a more square shape to remove some distracting stanchions and line-side signage.
