(1) Twisted wood upon a hill in the Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve. Shot with the E-1 + 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5 + EC-14, at composite values of 130mm and f/8, ISO 100, 1/200s.

(2) Zooming in a bit upon the 'head' of the twisted wood. Shot with the E-1 + 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5 + EC-14 with composite values of 283mm, f/8, ISO 100, 1/200s. To me, it bears more than a passing resemblance to a long-necked sea monster.

(3) Using the E-1 + 14-54mm at 22mm, f/8, ISO 100, 1/320s to catch this somewhat hazy landscape.

(4) Life on the edge of a fallen tree. Shot with the E-1 + 50mm f/2 + EX-25, at f/4.5, ISO 400, 1/60s, handheld (gah!). Depth of field is minimal with this combination.

(5) Trying to capture both light and shadow in the same scene. E-1 + 14-54mm, f/8, ISO 100, 1/8s.
