Another walk on Maldens Vlak

avatar
(Edited)

Good Morning , yesterday morning we went for another walk on Maldens Vlak , only this time we walked a different route.

My last post of that area was An Autumn walk on Maldens Vlak
and also #Fungifriday from Hollland just incase you want to see more autumn pictures after this.

It's been a long time since i've posted here in silverbloggers mostly because i'm a poor writer, or atleast that is how i see myself.

But i'll try to make it up with extra photo's today .

This is also my contribution to @c0ff33a and his #SublimeSunday and #BeautifulSunday by @Ace108 .

I started the walk with my Sony A7II + Sigma150 - 500mm Lens hoping to spot some wild life , but after 200 meters walking i new the chances where low to catch some wild life due to groups of mountain bikers and joggers all having loud conversations , i guess they have no idea how much noise they actually make.

The first mushroom was spotted soon enough

the way we came from was still very green for the time of the year.

same goes for the way ahead of us we planed to do a 5km route around a glider airfield.

oh look another mushroom spotted on a dead berch tree trunk

The first view on the glider airfield , not much happening , but you can still see the dew drops on the grass in the shadow.
The runway for the glider planes is made from grass cut out in the Heath vegetation that you can still see on the sides.

Looking at the windsock i guess there will be not much flying today

Looking upwards i noticed the colour changes in the European beech tree another benefit of a longg lens you don't need to climb the tree, to get these kind of pictures.

the sunllight and bluesky really worked well here.

Between the tress there was still this morning fog not really able to catch any sunrays but still a pleasant image.

this young pine tree coverd with spiderwebs , that were highlighted by the morning sunlight.

And then i spotted something else a horde of sheep on the gliderfield they where fenced in so they could get on the actual runway.

but in the morning sun they were just doing what sheep do ,


in the background you can see more parts of the glider field

Amanita muscaria / fly agaric

a dead tree coverd with small mushrooms


small red oak trees with hardly any leaf left on it


small mushroom growing out a dead tree trunk

glider planes parked on runway

The Sony A7II with the Sigma 150-500mm lens

i hope you like the walk and pictures
if you want more technical info about a picture let me know .

Enjoy your Sunday

Thank you Steve , using differend lenses forces you to change the way to look at things , with light and composition and that is for me what keeps photography interesting.

Yes, I like the way you are using the light and emphasing certain colours.

I unpacked my camera now and took a few shots and am getting better results than with my phone, i just cant find a way to transfer them from the memory card yet. lol

Hello @stresskiller, congratulations, I like all the photos. The last one, where you show your equipment, reminds me that I have several lenses that belonged to my dad, but they are for analog cameras. We also have several old cameras. Currently only digital cameras are used?

hi there are camera's like my Sony a6000 and A7II that can work with old Lenses, only thing needed is a matching adaptor ring , and those are not really that expensive , that way you can use old lenses on modern cameras , how ever they will remain manual focus and you will have to manual adjust the apperture settings.
but you can still use the old lenses , i do so my self i have mulltiple old Minolta lenses with adapter and also older Helios and Jupiter lenses with matching adapters.

OK thank you!. But the old cameras can't be used anymore, right?

that is hard to say , finding analog film and a place to develop them isn't always that easy

Ah, I thought that only happened in my country. I had heard that some photographers still get film and labs to develop them.
Thanks again, keep taking beautiful pictures 🙂.

Such a lovely Sunday! I love the variety of shots here, walking through the woods and hello! That red spotted mushroom. A fly agaric? What a great shot, nestled among the subdued feel of the leaves.

The landscape comes alive with the sunshine, while the other ones try to nap through the day. Lovely shots, I do like the change of pace with the sheep! :) Great shots and it looks like an absolutely beautiful Sunday, sublimely so! Thanks, Mick!

I love gliders and the first time I flew in one, it was a family model and I got to sit up front. The view was incredible, if not a little spooky. :) So delighted that I wanted to go up again and again.

temparatures are still above 10 degrees celcius , not yet cold enough for the trees to lose all the leafs

Excellant pics Mick .I loved the way you caught the morning fog.Also the webs on the spruce trees.Most ppl don't get that in their photo or think of taking a picture of such a scene. You've got a great eye and the lens you use speaks for itself.Keep up the great work
