While you're on, HG, have you finished burning all 2 tons of those logs yet?

No.4 for me as well.

Would it be possible to (selectively) increase contrast/sharpness on the group of seed-heads, just left of the path?
With the line of the fence receding into the distance & the lines of the oof grasses & the shadow left foreground bringing the eye back, it would create a nice resting/finishing point for the composition.
(IMO!)

A shot, & a crop thereof, of a fly on our tea cosy.

With K7, AF200T with plastic milk bottle diffuser, all on a double arm which, via a small ball-head, is positioned over the DF A 100 Macro.
The flash connected with a lead from 7DayShop for the lead.

Thanks to all who advised on the suitability/safety of the flash & directed me to 7DayShop.

I am v. pleased with the whole arrangement.

Can someone please assure me, absolutely, that this unit is safe to use with my K7, in respect of the trigger voltage?

Many thanks,

Roger.

Cropped & levels adjusted, sharpened, PSE9, Neat Image.

Worth it / does it work?
( I don't think so. Not so much for the lessening of IQ, but, compositionally, I think those "wide open spaces" give more of a sense of, a feel for, the creature.
