That last one is magic.

I have had one of these for several years and think that it's really good. I use Canon OEM inks, with third party paper, and am very satisfied with the results. I rarely print as big as A3, but when I have I'm very pleased with the results. B&W gives really good results, provided you get the correct set up for the paper you are using - for me, that was a matter of trial and error, but I now have a set-up that works fine on the papers that I use.
It's much more reliable than my previous printer (not a Canon) which had to be used very regularly or the print heads would 'clog up', and then use loads of ink to clean them out. The Canon can sit for switched off several weeks at a time and so far it has worked perfectly when I fire it up.
It works fine with both Lightroom and Elements 12.
I don't use the printer wirelessly. but have it connected via USB - just a matter of preference. I also don't use it for anything other than photo printing - I have another printer for general use.
Hope this helps.

My suggestion regarding processing is that they would all benefit from about 0.7 to 1 stops more exposure / brightness.

Wonderful image. The detail in the face compared to the blur of the wing tips is superb

I particularly like the first one - I think that you've chosen a really good exposure time for it. Just a suggestion, but have you tried cropping it a bit at the bottom to remove the yellow Lichen? I find my eye drawn to it, and away from the steps themselves.
