Mehmet, beautiful scene, looks like a fairytale watercolor.

I like it a lot, as well as your Flight of fancy IV I saw a few days ago. I just wanted to point out one little thing: I am not sure but in the extreme right area of the picture there is what seems to be visible a trace of your pp work, that you could easily fix ... as the overall pp you did here seems to me wery well done.

I love the concept and the result you obtained is beautiful.

Cheers,

Lorenza

This (v3.0) is one of the early versions of this particular work. I noticed the problem you mentioned few days ago, and decided to post anyway. Admittedly, I've been real lazy last couple of weeks.

Having said this, this problem was long fixed in the final high-res version (~90 MPixel) of the work.

I was most curious about the time it would take to PN viewers to notice the problem. And the cup goes to you, Lorenza! We need people like you, who analyzes images and does not afraid to share their opinions/findings.

Thanks

;-)

 

We also need more people who aknowledge and give feedback on the comments received, like you do, Mehmet ...

Moer superb than the previous if it was possible. I notice that you have'nt answer to me question about the previous. Thank you to answer if you have time and if my question is not idiot.

Regards, Henri

Henri, thanks for your kind words. Please do not take lack of response in the previous image as a sign of disrespect, it is nothing more than confusion on my part. I was not and still am not sure what you were referring, nevertheless, since I do not use any automated triggers or setup, the answer is simple; it is all manually done, no tripods, no AF and manual exposure.

Thank you Mehmet. The reason of my question was that it seems to me very difficult to follow a duck during its takeoff and take nine shots in bursts and in the same time to keep the camera horizontaly. I am not sure to be able of this. No. I am sure to not be able. Bravo!

Regards, Henri

Henri,

you are right ducks are very fast, I don't think I can reliably track them with a 2x TC + 200mm lens either. However, in that picture, the birds are not ducks. They are much bigger and slower swans, I am sure you or anybody else can track them too. It is really no big deal.

cheers,

I had not noticed that it was swans. Or a swan. I talk of the previous photo ("Flight of fancy IV"), not of the one above here. Is there nine swans or only one photographied at nine moments of its takeoff ?

Regards

They are swans. They took off in pairs, I can't remember how many pairs I shot, perhaps it was 5 pairs or so.
