hi Leigh beautiful pictures again. for me and my wife 2024 was a year that we want to leave behind us as soon as possible and preferably forget as soon as possible. I hope that 2025 will be a year in which I can finally pick up my photography. I wish you and your wife a blessed Christmas and a prosperous 2025. with warm greetings from the Netherlands

[@LeighWPhotos]

Hopefully 2025 will be fantastic for us all. Wishing you all the best!

[@robertbester]

Thank you for 20024. Enjoy 2025. Wishing you and Tracy a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

[@LeighWPhotos]

Thank you Robert, you too!

Always enjoy your postings Leigh thank you for 2024. Very much looking forward to your channel in 2025 especially with the 150 to 400 mm lens. I own this land at my reservations about it compared to the 400 mm F4. I also own. So I’ll be very interested on how you get on with your new white lens. Send you my Christmas wishes and wish you a healthy 2025.

[@LeighWPhotos]

Thank you! Hope you have a fantastic new year and see you in 2025!

Hi Leigh, merry Christmas to you and yours. I've enjoyed your photography journey through 2024 and look forward to 2025s videos.Yes I'd be very interested in your thoughts and insight to home printing, as it's something I've struggled with in the past. All the best for the New year 👍

[@LeighWPhotos]

Hi Clive! Thanks for coming along for the ride with us! Let's hope 2025 gives us some fantastic adventures and some equally stunning shots too! Hope you have a fantastic Christmas and New Year and see you in 2025!

Great video mate, wonderful shots and looks like you had a great year, will be looking forward to see what you get up to in 2015 fella. I've had a busy 2024 with work and other things going on, but 2025 is going to be all about photography and I'm going to start my KZbin channel again so watch this space 🤣 Merry Christmas and a great new Year Leigh, take care mate.

[@LeighWPhotos]

Thanks mate! I think we may need a winter visit to Cannock at some point too - definitely got a lot more to explore there! I'll let you know in the new year when I know what the times are looking like! Have a great one and see you next year! 😁

Hi Leigh enjoyed watching your videos this year very informative, I bought myself the OM 1 mkii a couple of months ago after watching your videos, I am so pleased with it but still learning,have a very happy Christmas both of you 😊

[@LeighWPhotos]

Thank you John! Have a fantastic time and see you in the New Year!

[@neilcam]

Definitely interested in an in-depth printing video. I got so frustrated with getting prints that were so much duller than the (calibrated) screen image that I essentially gave up on printing. No longer even have a printer, but would still love to see a video.

[@LeighWPhotos]

I'll see what I can come up with in the new year - watch this space!

[@neilcam]

@@LeighWPhotos Cheers, Leigh! Thank you. And happy festives to you and Tracy.

[@LeighWPhotos]

And you too Neil!

[@taterandy3958]

I am eyeballs3 the OM1 mkii for next year too along with the 40- 150 pro plus that mini converter for wildlife/bird photography. Please do a printing video for 2025 and how your printer!!! Another question is do one really need such a big lens for wildlife photography?? Are there any alternatives for micro four thirds?

[@LeighWPhotos]

The 40-150 with the 2x teleconverter is a great, compact wildlife set up with an equivalent 160-600mm in full frame terms and it'll be pretty sharp too! Another option would be the Olympus 100-400 which has added stability for the longer lengths too but is a little bigger but not too much difference in weight. Watch this space for a printing video though - it'll be coming soon!

[@taterandy3958]

@LeighWPhotos oh yeah 40-150mm and the 2 times converter is probably what I will have a look at !! Have to save some money to get it ! I am shooting on a budget EM1 mark1 and EM10 mk3, I know that they are not the best cameras for doing bird and wildlife photography but right now I'm trying to figure out the Olympus system before I get the OM1 mkii
