I've been out and about a lot the past few days, on more or less extensive walks
around the countryside. I usually only have my Nexus 6 with me, whose camera,
being a 2013 device, is really not the best anymore.

Today I decided to try out my father's Nikon D5200 instead to get some
experience using a more professional device. See below for a small selection of
my favourite shots.
