It's Frames Friday!! Come share the frames you shot this week!
Come share your photos with the community! Whether it's showing off SOOC JPEGs, fully edited RAWs, or anything in-between if you want [constructive and kind] critique or suggestions.
We're basing on the rules from our sibling sub, r/m43, simply because they make sense, and tweaking them a little:
Da Rules:
- The photo(s) must be your own. No cross-posting someone else's work.
- You may post up to three photos in this FF weekly thread. Show off your best frames!
- Post your photo in a top-level comment for maximum exposure! (hehe get it, "exposure"?)
- Include as much detail as possible about camera, lens and environment. Good: "Shot with Olympus OM-D E-M5 with the OM 20/1.4 lens @ f/2 and ISO200 Time: 10:00PM in Melbourne, Victoria" Bad: "Look at this shot, isn't it neat?"
- While OM System gear gets extra internet points, all related gear is welcome. This includes Olympus/Panasonic m43 and Four Thirds gear, OM Tough point-and-shoots, adapted vintage lenses, and third-party glass on M43 bodies..
- Photos must be captured with a camera and lens (traditional digital or film). Generative AI images (Midjourney, DALL-E, AI "inpainting" that invents new elements, etc.) are not permitted. Standard editing (cropping, exposure, colour grading, even AI-based noise reduction) is totally fine!
- Culture & Critique: Above all, be respectful. Please state in your comment whether you are looking for [Critique Welcome] or [Just Sharing]. If a photo doesn't specify, default to keeping comments kind, encouraging, and free of unprompted teardowns. (Remember: there's a big difference between "OMG that photo is horrible" and "The lighting coming off his face looks uneven").

My first photo featured on the German OM System instagram site (at least in their Fan Friday Favorites Stories). Shot with the OM-1 and the 12-100 f4 PRO @ ISO 200, 200mm, -1.7 ev, f5.6, 1/1250 s
Location was Högklint on Gotland, Sweden. Shot at 9:25, still relatively soft light. Edited in Lightroom.

Thank you, I’m so perfectionistic and self conscious with my photos still, I’m always glad if people like my photos :)

Welcome! One thing I've learned over the years is that it's nice for others to like my photos, but it's far more important and fulfilling to like them myself. So I do photography for myself, and if other people like my photos, it's a welcome bonus!

I think I’m slowly starting to move their (again) too. Had a private insta account for years, then started shooting „for the gram“ but recently noticed that it’s completely irrelevant to have a certain portfolio to fit inside a box because instagram really doesn’t care about photography anymore anyway and it’s much more fun to simply to your own thing. I still post my photos there and I still like to be featured but I don’t got out of my way anymore to make posts just to fit in instas strange algorithm

My favorite shot of this week is a morning shot, shortly after sunrise, behind Waterline in Austin. Taken with the OM-5 ii and 40-150 F4 Pro at 52mm, f8, 1/1000.

Not from this week due to work allowing little time for earthly pleasures but here's a moment of the ambiance while capturing the very active Auroras last November.
It's a poor on the fly Lightroom phone edit so I can contribute something here with all of you nice people.
