Some photos with my Panasonic G9 camera

[realspeed]

At last the weather has improved and been in the garden with the Panasonic G9 camera and the kit 12 -60mm lens. This time is the first effort using the zoom feature within the menu
Target was small hover flies which are not the easiest to photograph
Last one edited is photo of one above. all hand held. so quite pleased with this first effort on this camera setting

comments good or otherwise welcomed as are suggestions

there are times when editing a photo is important to show small features on such a small insect

thinking now on another lens from around 50-150mm so I don’t have to get so close. The 100 -300 lens I bought is more for long distance use

It was about time I tried out the 100 -300 mm lens . So aimed at a house the other end of the road

Jpeg unedited hand held

edited Raw version

which do you prefer? Myself I prefer the edited version. So does this show it pays to used an editing suite to improve a photograph
