Before sunset

I made a mistake with timing yesterday, and went to Sveta Nedilja an hour too early, so instead of a sunset I got to see the most contrasty, harsh sunlight. Of course, after we got tired and left, the golden light started. 🙂

This had an advantage, though: instead of the typical sunsety shots I had to look for things that are actually interesting on their own and regardless of the sunset, which is an example of photography in bad light I was talking about before.

Australopitecus hvarensis 🙂

This is exactly the kind of shots that I would normally take with my phone, because the light is so harsh I wouldn’t bother taking the camera, and then I would see interesting motives and end up with iPhone photo quality. This time, I took the A7CR with the FE 28-60mm f/4-5.6 lens.

There’s one thing I noticed – I got dust on the sensor two days in a row. Either that’s because I was careless when changing lenses, or the collapsible lens “inhales” air into the camera, or it’s just that the A7CR, unlike the A7RV, doesn’t have ultrasonic dust cleaning, is hard to tell. The dust speck was prominently featured in all pictures and I had to clone it out, and I need to pay more attention to those things in the future.
