1. These are also beautiful! I don't see any difference between these and the first pair.

What am I missing, my dear George?

My Olympus camera also has the 2X teleconverter and I often use it. But I use it with the lens zoomed out first. The 2X really works well under those circumstances.

2. I cropped the fence post shot a little toward left of frame and deleted the first image. Thank You Peggy!!

The teleconverter on my 12-45 is similar to 48-180mm full frame.

idea what you and Peggy are talking about but I am glad both of you share your photographic talent with those of us (me) who are photographically challenged. Thank you.

5. You're welcome Lois. Initially I posted a picture with the fence post and sunrise in the center.

But I deleted that shot in favor of one with the fence post and sunrise closer to the right of the photo, a little off center. Before I posted the second image, however, Peggy saw the first one and then the second one. I would've been confused too!

The sunrise behind a fence post is both fun and beautiful. Funny, though, I like the moon rise best for some reason. Perhaps because I'm partial to both blue and the moon, but I think the clarity and the clouds just make it perfect. Thank you once again for sharing. I'm so glad you're back sharing photos with DU.

6. You're so welcome Biophiic! It was funny how the moon shot came about.

After the fence post pic I turned around to the south and saw the moon, took a few frames and one came out worth publishing here. Thank You for your kind comment. I am glad too.
