flowers and weeds fallen cattail

A very nicely composed shot with beautiful lighting and details, Sam!

With best regards,

Ruud.

Hi Sam,

Nice shot.

What focal length did you select  ?

I know that this lens is F/6.3 near and at the 500mm set point.

Best Regards,  Mike

Thanks Ruud and Mike,  It was at full zoom wide open - 6.3 - sorry I left that off.

This is a lovely shot Sam, lovely shades of green, the soft falling cattail has a beautifully soft texture that stands out so well in this composition. Something so simple, yet to have the 'eye' to notice this 'teeny' bit of beauty in all the greenery, is a bit of a 'gift'. Not everyone notices these lovely 'moments'. Or actually will take the time to even take the 'shot'.

Beautiful blending and processing. I love it.

Also thankyou for commenting on one of my recent compositons(lily?), for I did not recognize your name, I haven't had time to entirely look over your whole Portfolio, but what I have seen is lovely - perhaps I've commented in the critique forum in the past, not sure..........but the most important fact is, I know you ARE her now, and can come back and enjoy your lovely 'eye ' for beauty.

My kindest regards, Gail

I just saw the photo of the Fuscia I did critique........but I should have remembered your name...........!

Great lighting Sam.

Thank you Ruud, Mike, Gail and Dominick.

Sam
