Grantchester Meadows - Out and About with the CCC Wednesday Workshop

In May the Wednesday Workshop met up with the Out and About group for a ramble on Grantchester Meadows.

All the photos, except for the first one, where taken with my Olympus OMD EM-1 with the 60mm f/2.8 Olympus macro lens plus fill in flash from the Nissan i40 flash gun. The Olympus is a micro four thirds camera so the sensor is smaller than my Canon 5D mkiii. Having said that I am very pleased with the quality and usability of the EM-1. The EM-1 has a x2 crop factor so the effective focal length is 120mm, very similar to the Canon with the 100mm macro lens.
