So, Austria's on lockdown. But people can take recreational walks. Knowing this, I thought now is the time to up my camera game. So I got myself a used (but in immaculate condition) Canon Eos 40D. Four days in, and I can already tell this was a great decision. The saturation and the resolution of this baby are so much more satisfying than what my former model (a 700D or Rebel T5i) could conjure up. I have much less of an urge to color-correct my pictures in post or work with contrasts/gradation curves. The in-camera features cater much more to my aesthetic needs. The pictures turn out just as moody, smooth and saturated as I want them to. The resolution is a massive step-up too. At the same time, it's not too in-your-face, it's an older model after all. Just the way I like it. Here are a few snaps from the last few days.

Maybe if I type this and delete it soon afterwards, my followup post will appear too.

I know this thread is about pics taken by board members, but I feel I must mention a recently departed master:

ah! even more reason.

maybe it was the moment or the framing or my own paranoia projecting things that are not there, but it looked to me like he was taking all the space and pushing her into the corner without noticing she's there.

which could be a metaphor for some marriages haha. but without knowing that this is what i saw there. i still do....

I love how deceiving photography is, and you make sense in that that particular composition doesn't really give away any signifiers about how those two people may be connected to each other. In other shots he's holding a cheap corner shop blue bag with her stilettos in it after a night out. They are a couple who used to live in my neighbourhood and then disappeared. I used to talk to him on the bus a bit because we worked on a similar schedule and happened to bump into each other while commuting. He was always drunk and seemed like a nice guy.
