Moody Morning the the R6 & RF 24-240

Down under in NZ, we are in the last stages of winter, and we have been experiencing a series of very foggy mornings with very dim light. Today, I decided to get out there and capture some images that would challenge the camera and the lens. What they offer us is a rich tapestry of tones and textures, with muted colours.

Very nice photos. I'm thinking of taking some photos in B&W or editing in B&W. Sometimes B&W conveys an impression lost with color. Question: How did you insert the settings at the bottom of each photo?

Thanks for your comments!

For me, greyscale images emphasize tone, texture and pattern in an image, that would otherwise be lost to colour. It also tends to give our images a classic throw-back impression, reminiscent of the earlier time in photography. I actually shoot in colour and then process to greyscale in post production. That way one can manipulate the RGB to change tonal values in much the same way as using coloured filters in the old days of film.

To be able to add the text at the bottom of an image, when you have uploaded an image, before you press DONE, you will see at the bottom of your image a space for a caption, that's where you put the text.
