Superb set! I really like no 2 for its clean strong composition and the dramatic landscape and light of no 10. Thank you for sharing!

The photographer Guy Tal has a very interesting background and some breathtaking images. I am looking forward to studying his website more thoroughly. Thank you for the link!

I would like to share one my all time favourite portraits (also a favourite in 2018...), done by the Norwegian photographer Morten Krogvold. This is a portrait of Gunnar Sønsteby, the most decorated Norwegian war hero from the resistance against the occupying Nazies during WW2.

Mike

Sorry to learn about your family difficulties, but hoping that things will work out and that you will be more active within photography in the new year!

I am waiting for the auroras, but no luck with the weather the few times there has been any auroral activity. The solar minimum also seems to bring less potent solar storms, so I guess one has to make the most out of any potential northern lights photographic possibility.

In the meantime I am planning to shoot some landscapes and other terrestrial subjects with the DA12-24 and some Lee filters

Thank you for your helpfulness!

Hi Paul,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the DA12-24 and Lee filters! The things you mention are very helpful!

The DA 12-24 is really a superb lens. I have mostly used mine for photographing the Northern Lights, but I would like to use it more for landscapes and general photography. Consequently it is important to know what filters can be used with lens.

I am very glad to have received such good advice, thanks once more!
