Thread Color

Here’s a look at the color rendition from the Nikon Z9 with the 50mm 1.8 S lens.

This thread on sale at a fabric store in Madrid, Spain. I like the colors, even in this degraded jpeg image sized to fit on the blog. Nikon does great with realistic colors. One of the reasons I’ve always been a Nikon user.

Bodega Ysios

A view from the tasting room at Bodega Ysios in Laguardia, Spain.

The view is beautiful, the wine delicious, and the company interesting. Good to linger here and enjoy it all. (Nikon D850, Nikkor 17-35mm 2.8D)
