SGang Gwaay XXI
I am back off to this special place until the end of February. Wish me good weather!
These photos from November 2018, above is looking to the north, below to the south south.
SGang Gwaay is a UNESCO World Heritage Site on an island on the south-west side of Gwaii Haanas

What camera were you using? It looks like there’s some spherical aberration in one or two of them

Hi, I just saw this comment. The first shot is taken with a Canon Powershot D30 – a small waterproof point and shoot that I carry in my vest when in the field. Or used to, I have lost the charger and battery. I haven’t noticed much distortion with it. The second shot is taken with my big Canon 5Dii DSLR with a 16-35mm zoom lens, shot at 35mm. That lens has quite a bit of distortion at 16mm, but very little at 35mm.
I am wondering if you might be asking about the right hand image in the “More in Burntembers” section at the bottom. That is a link to another post, and the image show in the link is distorted by (a) using the above lens at 16mm and (b) combining more than one image into a panorama using one of the software presets that causes such distortion. And it probably compounds the distortion of the lens.

I’ve looked at them again and at the ‘related’ ones and can’t see anything that looks like spherical abb. I don’t know what made me think there was. There are some beautiful evocative pictures there.

Really???!!! At this time of year? If the weather’s anything like what we’ve been getting down here, it’s not going to be pretty. But I’m sure it will be interesting, and I look forward to hearing about it. As they say above, have a successful expedition, you lucky bastard. 😉
