Thanks @louisbosco, @Sam and @Jett129 , glad you like them!
@louisbosco, for real? That really surprises me, since they are a couple years apart.
@Sam and @Jett129 , thanks for the interest!

i had some of my best years shooting the 5d mk2. maybe it's a nostalgic reason and i understand that in terms of specs the 6d is definitely better seeing it's an improvement over. but using the 5d mk2 just feels really easy to use, especially with the layout of the 5d to the 6d in general. to me the 5d mk2 was an improvement over the mk1 which was the entry level full frame, and now the 6d feels the same way as the mk 1 did back then..
at the end of the day, the camera doesn't really matter much as long as the holder knows where and what to shoot.

Breathtaking imagery @marlin

@louisbosco , this statement regarding the haptic and user experience I heard already a couple of times.
Yes, you have to know what you are doing, must have the eye and most important you have to be to the right time, on the right spot (like the rainbow in the Rapa-Delta-Shot). But for certain tasks it definite helps a lot, or makes the shot even possible, if you have the right tools! Sport-Animal- or Night photography comes to my mind.
The night shot was taken with ISO 10000, 30 sec. and 15mm with f2.8 !
Cheers!

@den1mhead Thans a lot!

@Marlin fantastic Pictures! Is the last one the dolomites / Tre Cime?
-
@Finshack and @Max Power, thank you guys!
Yes Max, this are the Tre Cime in the Dolomites, this picture was made on the same tour like the pictures I postet before (Page 105). The Dolomites are my favourite place to go, at least from dose places within my reach, just love them!

Same here, I hope to be able to go there again next year!

@marlin - Those shots are awesome. I've done enough photo to know how much accumulated work needs to be done before pulling something like those. Well done.
@Matty123 - There are lots of good cameras available these days. You need to boil down the ocean between SLRs, mirrorless, and others, and then see what's available for your price range. You can get deals on refurbished cameras from the OEM, or buy a used camera from an established dealer like B&H in NY. Lenses are as important as the camera and can be a lot more expensive. IMHO, wildlife photo is about the hardest thing an amateur photographer can pursue and it requires some of the most expensive lenses. My recommendation would be a full frame SLR and a single fast prime lens, maybe 50mm, and focus on learning to take pics with available light. As a side note, I found the book "Understanding Exposure" super useful.

Took these at work the other day.

Great Pictures @Filthy 21/23oz junkie.

I picked this up today for £75.00 with a spare battery, which I thought wasn't a bad deal.
-
I always try to remember to take a selfie on the end of my film rolls, most are throw aways but sometimes they yield interesting results.

Few recent slide scans from Velvia 100

some of my expired rolls became 'too expired'. absolutely gutted.. especially when i was expecting their glorified beauty of crossprocessed in europe.
they're
hardalmost impossible to find nowadays. i got them 4/5 years ago and i stopped shooting for a few years.one roll was the old Fuji T64 Tungsten and the other was an old Agfa (not the new Agfaphoto) Ct Precisa.
