Over the (Honey)Moon in Hawaii
I got married about 3 weeks ago, and we left for Kauai and Maui a few days later. This was the first time I really went all out taking photos while traveling (my wife is a saint) after getting back into photography in August.

A few pics from Nashville.
My wife and I just got back last night from a a long weekend in Nashville. We stayed at one of the hotels right around the corner from Broadway, and right across the river from Nissan Stadium (where the NFL Titans play). Very enjoyable trip.
This is my first foray into trying to do anything other than phone snapshots while travelling. Just not a fan of lugging a lot of gear around while sightseeing. I knew we would be walking almost everywhere we went, so I had decided against the D7200/Sigma 17-70 that I use sometimes for walkaround stuff. Lighter and smaller was my main priority. After the research and decision-making process, which had way too much boring detail to go into here, I ended up taking a Oly EM-5ii (with grip, used mostly with the 12-40 PRO) and a Panasonic GX85 (used mostly with the Pana 20mm f/1.7 and the Oly 14-150ii).
Any comment or suggestions are welcomed, but please bear in mind this is my first attempt at this type of thing with an m43 system.
Also, if you have a go-to camera/lens/bag combo I would like to hear about it
Thanks,

Lessons of a novice in photographing flying aircraft
Ever since my teenage years, I have lived somewhere within 2 km from Christchurch International Airport (CHC/NZCH). In that time, I have often driven past the perimeter, seeing cars parked along the road with people watching the planes take-off and land. Every now and again, I'd see folks with big white lenses on big tripods on the back of their yutes... strange folks, I thought.
Fast forward to Easter 2018. I have now been using an E-M1 for about three years, and a super-telephoto in the form of the 100-300 f/4-5.6 II for about two months. The Warbirds Over Wanaka air show is on further south, and I hear that a couple of USAF aircraft were going to be operating out of CHC for the show. How exciting!
Up to this point, I knew the basics of how to pan, slow shutter speeds to show propeller motion, and had some idea of the abilities and limitations of the C-AF with the E-M1 and 100-300. Still much to learn... as I soon discovered.20Apr 4, 2018 -
Classic mood photographic event
Hello.
Here are a few ones from a recent photo event organised and produced by a local photographic group.
The event took place in an old portuguese palace that was once the king's main mail man residence.
Cameras used: Olympus OMD EM5 MK2 + OMD EM10 MK2.
Lenses used: Olympus M.Zuiko 45mm f/1.8 and 75mm f/1.8; Panasonic-Leica 25mm f/1.4
I've used mainly natural light on outdoor photos and a Godox TT685o speed light on the interior shots and a few outdoor ones as a fill light.
I've bounced light with a white card.
Edition start on Lightroom and then final edition in Photoshop.
I hope you like them.
The photos, not only the models14Oct 22, 2018
