Thanks for the support, I’ll keep the gators down here. Besides I’ve grown fond of the monsters. The Spoonbills will not be visiting soon, warm weather is a must for them. I’ll try to keep,the posts coming.

As for the OM-1 now in use, you were one of the resources I used when making my evaluations. I read with great interest your article on the 100-400 comparisons. I also know a photographer using that same gear. Being able to view images shot similar to me, and your information helped me make the decision to go OM-1 and the Leica. Now that I have been using the gear out in the swamps I am more than happy with the choice, the honeymoon is over and I know more now. Still a perfect fit for me right now.

Hello Ted, your comment is very appreciated.
Nik and other film simulations naturally offer many possibilities.
But I also develop Luts myself, called PictureFX, specialized in simulation of 35mm film such as Kodak, Cinestill and others – you can also use these in most image editing software on Raw or on video. There will be a new article about this soon.
Know that I always look at your photos with great interest (and a little jealousy 🙂 ) – and especially because you are now photographing with an OM-1. My wife and I find those roseate spoonbills especially breathtaking, we think they are more beautiful than flamingos. On the other hand, we find the alligators very scary, glad we don’t have them here 🙂 !
Take care.

Hey Mark, Thanks, that really means a lot to me !
Too bad your Nikon hasn’t been delivered yet, and I know the feeling when you have to wait – but there’s that expression “good things come to those who wait” or something like that, and I think in your case it’s really something worth waiting for, I was honestly jealous when I read your writing last time 🙂 But I really wish you a lot of fun with it ! I’m already looking forward to the first photos.
