Test Three / by Dave Hileman

Back at the NC Museum of Art with a couple more shots. These are with the 16-80 lens, which I like a lot. I am not too sure I had the right settings on some of the photos I took and I do not have the element activated that tells you when you are correctly exposed. I am trying to only use the histogram at this point.

This is a 20 foot tall outdoor “quilt” - good colors and a bluebird on the top

This alcove was very dark, with some bright light patches, pretty pleased.

I saw this hawk land and was able to approach to about 35 feet. He was backlit and in a tangle of branches. Using the smallest focus point and spot focus I got this shot. Very happy with it particularly do to the relatively short focus of the lens.

Frist of the X-T5 shots outside. This is Cindy in a new installation of mirrors.
