I’m hoping you haven’t noticed, but this past couple of weeks has seen me take a holiday. I say I hope you haven’t noticed as I tried hard to keep the blog up to date with posts and replies to comments.
My break has taken me to the island of Madeira where I was trekking in the hills. It’s my first time to the island and whilst the holiday was good the weather wasn’t. I believe our flight was the last to land for a couple of days and some members of the walking party were severely delayed.
Despite the poor weather, the trip was very enjoyable. The weather conditions also created the opportunity for a bit of photography with my trust Olympus EM5. The image above is just one of the stunning locations on the island.
If all you Fuji shooters are now screaming why didn’t he take the X-T2, the answer is size. I can easily fit the EM5 together with three lenses into a small shoulder bag. This makes trekking with a full backpack and taking pictures very easy. There is no way the X-T2 with three similar lenses would fit in such a small pack.
I hope you like the image and have a great weekend.
Thanks, Robin. Lovely image—enjoy your holiday!
Thank you
Great picture as always ! Fuji lovers can scream all they want, this just shows us that you can take wonderful pictures with the EM5 as well or with any other camera with a smaller sensor :p
Thank you. The camera doesn’t really matter much very much providing you use it well.
My first thought upon seeing this photo: Madeira…
Coincidence. Took some great shots over there in nasty wheateher. Same Olympus set as yours.
The Olympus kit is probably a coincidence but I’m sure the weather is consistently “nasty”.
