    Great to see you back Peter. My own dad took a chest infection then pneumonia on his birthday 21st December and was in hospital. Was sent home due to covid in the hospital but got worse and was in hospital over the new year. So I know how much it sucks. Keeping active in our hobbies really helps. Look forward to seeing what photography shenanigans you get up to this year

    @leonarddavis8449 Před rokem

    Hi Peter, I’m always amazed at your enthusiasm for photography, especially at your age
    and with your health issues. The night images were excellent, I remember thinking
    8 megapixel was the ultimate. I hope you health improves and you take many new
    Pictures in the new year.❤

  • @alexn6950
    @alexn6950 Před rokem +1

    Thanks Peter, glad you’re back! 85!? You look great! Was going through the holiday photos of this year’s gatherings and noticed the same issues you brought up with night shooting. Not as easy as it looks even with all the automation. Take care, my friend and keep shooting. Always look forward to your viddies!

    Happy New Year Peter and I hope you have better health in 2023😊. Thanks for this video I learned something new about taking Christmas lights pictures- never thought of using exposure comp. Mind you I mostly just do fairy lights and ICM on the photos. Something still to bear in mind though

  • @thomasfrost6993
    @thomasfrost6993 Před rokem

    Nice to see you Mr. Elgar. I was wondering if you were o.k.. What happened to the "Buy me a Coffee" spot on your videos, I'd like to buy you a Coffee or two and thank you for making exposure compensation a little more clear to me. I enjoy your videos!!
