Alex 0 Posted April 3, 2010 Today my wife went shopping with the kids and I was left home alone to play on my own. I graved a few flowers and took some pictures. This is a crop of the original. When I looked at it on the computer screen I noticed to two bugs, (too bad I did not see them then) and decided to make them the center of attraction. The flower was lit from behind with a soft box and a Canon 580EXII. I'd appreciate your thought and comments. Alex Link to comment

toloduran 0 Posted April 3, 2010 A veces cuando se fotografia se escapa algun detalle. Unas veces dan al traste con lo que uno pretendia, pero tambien aveces estos detalles resultan de lo mas interesantes y se convierten en verdaderos coprotagonistas,.Este es un claro ejemplo y a mi por lo menos me encanta ver a estos dos inquilinos en tan precioso habitaculo, haciendo especial lo que ya de por si es una magnifica composicion, con una luz y tonos sensacionales. ++ Un cordial saludo -Tolo.

alfbailey 4 Posted April 7, 2010 I did a similar thing once when I photographed a frog and inadvertantly photographed two "dualing pondskaters" on a lily pad......not nearly as attractive as this image though, the graduated colurs are just awesome. Nice work Alex! Regards Alf Link to comment
