Joe Enfield's photostream

I'm an amateur photographer from Finland.

I don't have any specific theme here. I shoot what I like and post here the ones I like the most.

For processing and editing I mostly use Adobe Lightroom.

Feel free to comment on my photos as I want to learn how to take better pictures. Please avoid blinking pictures / animated gifs when commenting. Thank you :)

Was using previously (and still do occasionally) Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 but then I wanted some more control of my camera. In the summer of 2009 I got interested in the Micro Four Thirds standard and then in January 2010 I got the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1 with a 14-140mm lens. I spent some months first getting to know DSLRs and read several reviews and comparisons before I knew what kind of a camera I actually needed. So far I've liked the GH1 a lot.

## Dec 2010 ##
Some thousands of pictures taken with the GH1. Always have something to learn. Got a tripod and the result is sharper pictures and the possibility of long exposures. I have found the limitations of the GH1, that's the low light conditions where it's difficult to focus and get decent handheld shots. Also I do need an external flash for inside shots.

## Jul 2011 ##
There's a growing need for a faster lens, like Panasonic's 20mm f/1.7. Maybe I'll get it some day.

## Jan 2012 ##
New lens. Not the 20mm but instead Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 25mm f/1.4 ASPH. With the crop factor 2x of the camera that makes it a normal lens.
