It is amazing to see. I have a few photos from past years, but nothing I was really happy with, and mostly accidental. Today with the OM-1 it was easy\u2026almost too easy. I have dozens of shots better than anything I have managed before. I have a short video I will post one of these days so you can get a sense of what it looks like \u201clive.\u201d OM Systems OM-1 with ED 100-400mm IS zoom at a 300mm equivalent.
