BTW, the image of the hawk is a little soft. The web page appears to be enlarging it, at least on my monitor. Not sure if I can control that somehow - perhaps the DPI settings in my export dialog in C1?

Yes, as far as I can tell the forum software seems to expand images to fill the available width. But I've found that you can single click on the image, grab the corner handles and drag it down to a smaller size.

Very good picture, @sergun80 !! It has composition, reflection, beautiful light and moment...

Thank you. By the way, on flickr, the picture got into the explore.

Congratulations to everyone on the 80th anniversary of the victory.

A sunset time-lapse I made in Thessaloniki (Greece) last week, the colors were amazing! S5 with 20-60mm.

Oh, It looks sharp to me wide open... I thought that this 18-40mm lens was not an option... I was wrong... damn!!

Yes, it's a great little performer. And a great match for the S9.

I like the curve the fisheye distortion gives to the foreground here.

Old sign in a small local area history museum. I processed this with DxO PhotoLab and it seemed appropriate to apply a Kodachrome 64 film simulation.

A couple of shots of the "City of light", Paris:

Jardín des Tuileries (Midday light, not the most appropriate for photography, but you can see how people sunbathe in París)

I tried to merge some pics:

It's curious how Parisians play "pétanque" . I like these "Red Dot" photos, especially when the lines converge at that red dot.
