Even though I prefer colour, that mono is one of the few that works in mono for me.

Thanks, glad it worked for you

Interesting post and great pictures, I have to research a bit on the technique.

Here's one that was taken at f2.8 but I wasn't too happy with, showing the effect I was chasing....

Ps, I had Snap setting on with focus distance set at least 2.5 meters. Hence hyperfocal comment.

Colour preferred in the first pair due to rust/water contrast.

The third is a nice composition but I think the foreground is a little too blurry so slightly distracting. Did you shoot this one again (or similar) with a narrower aperture?

Yes I too prefer the colour. The aperture stayed I believe the same, 5.6 I think, but I deliberately got in too close to the seed heads for same effect of blur, breaking the hyperfocal if you like, I had been trying the same with flowers but they didn't fair too good, 😅 but no didn't shoot another as no time, swmbo is now
Somewhat under my care.

Set the GR4 to hard mono, maybe a bit dark as set to -7/10. I thought user ' smc' might be interested

Very nice. Are the mono photos SOOC?

I don't think they were, fairly sure, as I m yet to try mono out. Been learning all the menu options and just set up a user on the mode dial to do mono and snap action, going for hard mono. Early days.
