Hughenden to Brandenham

The weather has been great again and I decided to make use of my National Trust membership before it expires so took the train to High Wycombe and went hiking to Hughenden Manor and afterwards to Brandenham.

This is a series of some pictures I took at the different places and along the way, with exception of the last all are JPGs taken with the GR, the last is a RAW conversion but without much processing.

Thanks to the macro mode and the great high ISO quality the GR is very versatile and works great as the only camera for a trip. It's also very small and light and can be carried in a jeans pocket if needed, although it should really be in your hand because it won't take pictures in the pocket. ;)

Walk around Wycombe

GF1, f7.1, 1/125, ISO 100, RAW, 40mm

The weather has been fantastic today. Instead of spending the day in London I decided to go with some friends out and explore the Wycombe area. We started off with a visit to Hughenden Manor before walking across fields to West Wycombe Park where we gatecrashed a wedding by mistake.

It was a great day out and I took lots of pictures with the GF1 and both the Panasonic 40mm lens and the Olympus 14-42mm lens. I can’t help but wish either Panasonic or Olympus would release a lens like the one on the LC1 for their m4/3 cameras so I could just get this and never have to worry about using anything else.

I decided to upload a small gallery on Dropbox with some of my favorite pictures. You can find the gallery here.
