40 - 150 mm 1:4.0 - 1:5.6 ... I love it...









Yesterday my children, Julian and Cornelia, two of their friends and me have been visiting the corn labyrith in Vinxel, near Bonn. I shot some 61 pics. Ten of them were worth to be worked out a little bit with the OLYMPUS Viewer 2 software. As usual I shot with the Olympus E-PL 1 and one of my only two lenses: the 40 - 150 mm M- Zuiko, that can take increadibly sharp pics, if the autofocus exactly does what I want...














Leica-look-alike!







Julian, now in school since 5 weeks...new friends and old Kindergarten friends, who he wanted to see that weekend...







These straw bales are for my friend Wolfgang Lonien from Frankfurt. I know his taste! He enjoyed also a quite simple pic of a shoe, I took earlier this year...Never ever saw something so golden like these bales in my 47-year old life! But the Camera monitor can´t do the exactly colours! For your and his pleasure I developed this pic as a normal sRGB (the only one in that row of ten pics). But my iMac can´t do the colours also in a perfect matter... just a glimpse of never seen before shining pure gold corn! I want to say: Kruegerrand is nothing in comparison! Not kidding!





Different shades of brown... this pic shows, how far the 40 - 150 mm can go in terms of sharpnes...in the certain moments when the camera loves you...I am shure, you can´t go so far with canon set lenses...






Cornelia Marie in the shadow. Some white balance correction by the software (I put the white balance to 7500 Kelvin).




During (or a short time after) sunset. The original file was even more red. Beautiful Olympus colours, slightly corrected... I´ m still in love with the E-PL 1!





All of them: Four rascal!





A nice Portrait of Cornelia just 16 minutes later (and against the bright, glowing sky)






This was much to dark (more than 2 steps), but I want to show it nonetheless






The last of the better shots today. It was 7:06 pm in germany and time to go home for supper...


Thank you for viewing!
