What a vista. And so accessible! Some similarities with Broken Hill (apart from the mining), maybe that generates some of my liking for this area.

I think I prefer this one because of the cactus lighting/shadow.

Someone else over on the right too. How long does it take you to get up here? And what's the distance?

So it has - both types
Love the foreground light and colour. Are wild fires an issue at all? It's obviously dry for much of the year but the fuel loads seem pretty light.
And thanks for the maps.

Magnificent. Art!

Love this one. The fill flash is just right IMHO. Very nice how the sunburst mimics the prickle clusters.

If I cut out the sun and sky this reminds me of big soft corals in PNG.

Nice evocative mood. I too have an LG tho mine is a V20. It's about 3-4 years old. I've never played with it much but if it can do this then I should be trying.

I like the red tones in this

The biggest downside imo to the wide angle mode of the LG is that it is infinity focus only. I try to make up for it with extra sharpening, specifically a fancy sharpening tool/feature that Rawtherapee has, where you can set contrast thresholds.
