I've been a #DSLR user for a long time but I agree that #mirrorless world has much more to offer.

According to airfleets.net, this 9 years old #A319 will be used for spare parts and scrapped at #stAthanAirport. I photographed it brand-new in 2010. It's a pitty it won't be airborne anymore. #aviation #photography #planeSpotting https://kmnk.cz/photos/aviation/256

Not just the 747 had the 50 years anniversary in 2019. Yesterday it had been 50 years since the first flight of Let #L410 #Turbolet. I photographed aircraft of this type in 2014 at Prague Airport. #aviation #photography #planeSpotting https://kmnk.cz/photos/aviation/338

Having an ultra-zoom in your pocket allows you to take photographs with a compressed perspective from unconventional angles while just roaming the streets. I didn't expect to see the babies returning to #zizkovTower but here they are. #davidCerny #barCode https://www.flickr.com/photos/kmnk/47506540201/

Nice inspirational video about #streetPhotography https://youtu.be/v4H6eWEdGLM

I've found an inspiring blog by Sylvain Duford. It is dedicated mainly to photographing with a #MFT (#M43) system and he writes critically about current mainstream consumer #photography trends. Articles like this one are important, at least for me: https://www.duford.com/2016/04/technical-quality-vs-art-and-story-telling/

This is one of my first photos taken with a manual Tamron 55BB 500mm #vintageLens. Focusing can be tricky but it offers 811mm equivalent focal length on an APS-C sensor and allows me to take photos like this one without a need to carry a large #telephoto lens because it uses a #catadioptric design. #kestrel #falcon #photography https://www.flickr.com/photos/kmnk/33236815148/

I went to the airport with a manual #mirrorLens and I really like the #doughnutBokeh. What do you think? https://kmnk.cz/photos/aviation/411

Yesterday it had been 50 years since the first flight of the #QueenOfTheSkies. I have published many #photographs of her but this is my favourite one. https://kmnk.cz/photos/aviation/299

Why Flickr Limiting Free Users to 1,000 Photos is a Smart Move https://petapixel.com/2018/11/02/why-flickr-limiting-free-users-to-1000-photos-is-a-smart-move/

I have added new photos to my #aviation #photography website. If you like them, #RSS feed is available for you here: https://kmnk.cz/homepage/feeds

I took several photos of various sculptures in the centre of #Liberec with my new 500mm Tamron Adaptall 2 prime lens. The lens is manual and not stabilised and I didn't have a tripod, so when the lighting conditions worsened, I took some photos with a stabilised compact camera, and you can compare the difference. #photography https://www.flickr.com/photos/kmnk/albums/72157704704544071
