Given a phone doesn't have wings or a beak it would be next to impossible but I don't know what next year's models will bring.

What's interesting is that I mostly frame prints for family gifts and found that the younger generation is most appreciative. Of course I'm chuffed when I visit them and see one of my images on their wall. In my home you have no choice, the walls are shamelessly plastered with images from around the world.

I find it a little interesting there is still a (small?) demand for Instant Film Cameras like Fuji Instax.

Took some visiting friends on a hike to a few waterfalls in the Columbia Gorge today. Here's one, Falls Creek Falls, a 330' drop in three tiers.

It was an outstanding day. There's nothing like being in Nature to clear the mind.

Until I went off-trail to better position for the shot above, slipped and bounced on my arse about 20' down a rocky slope and stopped about 10' short of a 30' drop into the creek. No camera or lens damage and found a new use for the tripod as a ski pole for stability climbing back to the trail.

Not sure about that, but my son is convinced the new Sonys can do this.

The Oly 12-100mmf4 lens is so versatile. It could be the only lens one needs. Or not.

Are U using tubes or Close focus Filter?
Or is that just a really big bug?

Looked up the specs: that is quite close focusing for a Zoom.
Close focus: 1.5cm (0.6") at 12mm; 27cm (10.6" at 100mm)

No tubes or close up filter. As you noted the minimum focusing distance is quite close.

I went through a phase of looking at portraits at full size to see if I could see the reflection of the photographer in the person's eyes. Admittedly in your pic the person in the reflection looks like they are a bystander so they don't count lol.

Ok. how vicious is it and how long does it take for this one to kill you?

Went to a new local cars and coffee yesterday cohosted by one of the shops I go to for maintenance. Only had some time while my dog was napping to go and snap a few pics.

Honestly only really got a few decent photos. And only for one car, at that. An Evora GT in a beautiful orange that looked red in the shade:

Absolutely no idea as it was on the other side of the kitchen window. Just as well as it looked very hungry and was giving me weird looks.
