At 87, my days of traveling are behind me, so I don't have the range of subjects that you and others do. I try to find interesting things within a thirty minute drive, often in my own yard. So, I spend my energy on trying to make the best of the subjects available. The additional resolution of the X-T2 has helped a lot, and I am a short-timer in the use of Lightroom, so I am still learning daily. Comments and suggestions from the good folks on the LUG and the OM lists have also been very helpful. After 65 years with Leicas and other cameras and lenses, there is still a lot to learn.
