Amelia Island, Florida, at 7 AM this morning. Wind chill at 5 degrees!

A hard freeze overnight and even a few snowflakes yesterday afternoon.

Amelia and her Mermaids

A black and white rendition to show off the little moon just to the left of her hair.
It’s a beautiful statue along the beach. My guess is f/8 at ISO200.

Float my boat. Fernandina Beach Marina.

Big boat, ‘little’ boat.
Built for stability, comfort, and room.
Yachts and a paper mill.

Canon EOS R mirrorless digital camera and a Canon EF 16-35mm f/4 L IS USM zoom lens.

A wonderful combination.

Unexpected ‘find’

1972 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 4.5

Spotted in the Fernandina Beach Historic District.

Lovely classic Benz with the 4.5-litre V8.

Very nice ‘smile’.

Fernandina’s Fantastic Fudge is located in the Historic District. A sweet spot to be.

The establishing shot… 16mm, f/4, 1/80, ISO125.
With a square crop.
Action shot.

I enjoy using my older Canon EF lenses on my Canon EOS R mirrorless camera. Many EF lenses are an excellent value compared to their newer RF counterparts. Canon makes a simple adapter that adapts the EF lens to the RF mount.

Happy SUNday! – ‘sight’ seeing

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

At sea level, at 6 feet above the surface, you can see an object at about three miles away. With a 600mm lens, details come into focus.

Uncropped image of a sailboat taken with my 600mm lens. With the naked eye, the boat was a white spot on the horizon.
A slight crop of the original image reveals additional details.
At an extreme crop. My Canon EOS R does well with its 30.3 megapixels.
Canon EOS R.
