Taken with a camera you wouldn’t think of for wildlife, and an adapted lens.

It’s camera and lens release season again, due to the recently cancelled CP+ show – while the show fell victim to the coronavirus, many of the cameras and lenses scheduled for the show are already announced and more are coming soon. Hopefully, the epidemic eases soon, with no further disruption to the lives and health of the people of China, and no more spread to the rest of the world. Whatever issues it causes in manufacturing are unimportant compared to its effect on human lives, especially in the hardest-hit areas in the city of Wuhan and Hubei Province – my thoughts are with every person affected or potentially affected by the virus.
The trends are interesting to look at, if not of all that much photographic use to the majority of the Luminous Landscape readership. So far, there have been two very interesting developments among camera bodies, plus a number of other incremental improvements. Canon has ann...

Dan Wells, "Shuttterbug" on the trail, is a landscape photographer, long-distance hiker and student in the Master of Divinity program at Harvard Divinity School. He lives in Cambridge, MA when not in wild places photographing and contemplating our connection to the natural world. Dan's images try to capture the spirit he finds in places where, in the worlds of the Wilderness Act of 1964, "Man himself is but a visitor". He has hiked 230 miles of Vermont's Long Trail and 450 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail with his cameras, as well as photographing in numerous National Parks, Seashores and Forests over the years - often in the offseason when few people think to be there. In the summer of 2020, Dan plans to hike a stretch of hundreds of miles on the Pacific Crest Trail, focusing on his own and others' spiritual connection to these special places, and making images that document these connections. Over years of personal work and teaching photography, Dan has used a variety of equipment (presently Nikon Z7 and Fujifilm APS-C). He is looking for the perfect combination of light weight, ruggedness and superb image quality.
