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.

I processed this photo using DxO's FilmPack 7 plugin using the Ilford Pan 400 film simulation, with some added grain.

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

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