What a morning

I woke up around 06.00 in the morning on my free day - and as soon as i entered the living room - I noticed that there was something special about to unfold. A dry coldfront over Stockholm - clearly visible, very defined - from my balcony. As the sun started to rise, you could see the burning colors emerge in the exceptional clear air. This would then increase multifold with stunning burning colors which envelope the entire dry cold front.

What stunning views. So, in the state of being newly awakened i took many images, with both Olympus OM-1 as well Fujifilm GFX 50s II cameras. And sometimes i missed the focus, because all cameras and lenses - which originally were set to very different parameters. My somewhat slower brain took some time, to realize what proper settings where needed.

What i failed to enable was the image stabilization with the Fujifilm GFX camera *LOL* Oh well... getting old perhaps. It is also that i constantly have to switch glasses in all the back and forth with cameras and many lenses.

You really need to get your ducks in the row *muohahahaaaa* in order to do things right. Nevertheless, most images turned out absolutely stunning. It is so fascinating. Sometimes the high clouds had this amazing tree dimensional look. The clear air, the strong reddish-orange-yellow light from the rising sun (without being visible to me), really gave the clouds stunning looks. Which changed over shorter times, as well in color.

Ah, what a morning !!!!
