Waiting for the sun to move round, I would have liked 10 minutes of that yesterday, as it took 5 hours to get a full 2 minutes.

I was concerned enough about the extreme heat to cover the camera as it topped 30 degrees, happy days.

Hasselblad H3, with a 50-megapixel back and a 50-110mm lens; it was one of those baking-hot, intense summer days, in between showers. I had to quickly take cover, leaving the tripod as it was for reference.

I am tethered to Hasselblad’s Phocus software on my MacBook Pro; it works well these days, you just have to worry about battery life.
