My Quest in the Dusk... - a photo on Flickriver

            ...goes on!

► █░▓    WHAT DO the micro-four-thirds and the dusk have in common?
-They both operate in twilight zone and give up on you when the scenery is at its most glorious!
Yet, I'm still trying. This shot is taken almost half an hour after the sunset, thus the only light that there is, comes reflected from the sky. I left the contrast and brightness low as I remember the scene. It would have been easy to lift it in post. On the positive side a common thing that Panasonic bodies seem to have is the monochrome option. It produces a b&w jpeg and a color raw file (if you choose to). But the jpeg machine chooses better values for the b&w than I can do by hand when developing from raw. I tried the G80, also tried the G9, the same thing. 

NATURE RESORT Avelingen, Boven-Hardinxveld in the province of South Holland.
This is done with the cheapest Olympus kit zoom, 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 II R at its longest throw (the weakest point of this lens). The sooc jpeg is uncropped and edited in Affinity Photo 1.9.2.

NATUURPARK AVELINGEN, Boven-Hardinxveld aan Merwede.
Op missie om de mft in de schemering aan de praat te krijgen. De G80 doet niet veel onder de G9. Van bijna nul graden wordt ie niet warm van! Maar de low light, flink ná zonsondergang, wordt een beproeving waaronder de boel uit elkaar valt. 
BLUE HOUR, maar nu zwart en wit. De meerkoet redt het. Hoe anders was ik tot nodige contrast gekomen?
