Natural daylight my friend, can’t beat it! Just to add to Pw’s post above, my routine is exactly the same….shoot with the iPad (no idea why it gives such depth of field but glad it does) then tweak with a photo editor on the laptop……all Apple-based so auto-upload. Easy for lazy people! 

So the first photo seems like what i get in daylight, i live in Southern California and its almost always direct sunlight.  Wont that be too stark with the shadows.  The second photo, of the 109, is what i would like to be able to do.

Yes, bright sunlight isn’t the best light for outdoor photography, everything is too contrasty….unless of course that’s the effect you want.  That’s why I rushed out and took my Gauntlet pictures when I did, just a light cloud cover on an otherwise bright day.

 

 

 

 

I’ve been asked for some hi res pictures by Silver Wings but it has been too bright.
