The Tree Canopy Starts To Fill In

These will probably be the last Peebles Island Trail Scenics for April. The tree canopy is starting to fill in and the grasses are growing taller.

Today, I tried out a Canon Powershot S100 for the scenics. Earlier in the week I took both the S100 and a 5D with 50mm lens over to the island. While the detail and dynamic range of the full frame 5D with a quality prime lens was still better than the compact S100, advances in sensor technology and a three generation newer processor make up for some of what would otherwise be a gigantic difference.

Here are shots from today with shooting information in the captions.
