Let me know what you think of this photograph. This is not my first

macro shot, but I don't have much experience with it so I'm looking

for comments and suggestions.

Nice image. well composed, great colours, and the ladybird looks really good where it is positioned. A really good shot.

One of the strongest images in your gallery here. Good use of a high-saturation film and strong composition.

 

This is one of those shots where bracketing in 1/3 stops can make a huge difference. It would be good to see a bit more shadow detail, but you wouldn't want to lose the intensity of the yellow.

I believe at the time of scanning, I didn't have the chance to get a few of the brackets of this scanned in. As I remember it is bracked +1 and -1 stops in 1/3 stop increments. Unfortunately I forget which this is. If I get a chance to rescan I may try to work it better. It's been one of my favorites as well.

Sometimes a slide that looks slightly overexposed on the light table makes a better scan with a desktop scanner, I find. Between the narrow range of slide film and the narrow range of the scanner, it can be a challenge to get everything you want in there.

I don't know what to say about the photo but it works for me. Being at the half of your portfolio, it is the one I prefer for the moment.

Perfect photo, everything is right on except maybe the ladybug could have been redder, but I guess that's not your fault so I woun't fault you on that. I love the DOF too.

i tried different adjustments, but found that whatever I did either blew the bug away by the petals, or the bugs which highlight just went too bright, so it's pretty much left as is. You should see this at 20". :)
