Another photoshop overlap of several exposures of the same take.

Advice is welcome

this picture is a perfect catch. either extreme luck or extreme patience. either way it is a masterpiece. in between ngs and terminator.

great

While the results are beautiful, i have to doubt the truth of the dew. i have never seen small drops like this on a live animal. it does look like glycerol or similar. please comment.

i just can't get over how beautiful and gracious this picture is. just fantastic hue and subject

thanks!

I took this during my daughter's christening. I found it it evocative.

thank you for your comments

rare shot, taken from the car. the snow does not last that long on

trees

This is my yearly exercise with still life. I have used with this one

(as in others) a trick. With a tripod I take several different

pictures changing the lighting direction and intensity each time. I

then mount all pictures as separate layers in photoshops and erase

parts in which the lighting I do not like, leaving underneath the

parts I like in the the underlying layer and so on down to the last

layer(usually 4 or 5). The effect is like having multiple lights

instead of only one or two. It obviously only works with still life.

Please comment on this one

flowers are an easy shot I know, they are beautiful whether you shoot

them or not, but this one had peculiar creases, so I thought you

might find it original...

It is wonderful for three reasons:

a) lighting -> can you describe what did you use?

b) unusual view

c) DOF: what aperture did you use?

You have caught two interestting and contrasting patterns:

sharp brown dots vs green, light lines. it is a nice composition. I would have liked more of the green in the frame, but i am not sure such a shot was possible

I was very lucky with this shot as it captured in one shot the

intensity of my son and the humor of my daughter, in an interesting

frame. Lighting is wanting, as the opportunity needed to be caught,

without waiting for more sunshine...

Thank you all for your comments. I have debated much on the foreground. I kind of liked the theme of the purple on this side of the shore recalling the opposite and that's why I finally decided to keep this version. I had another one without, which on my minde looked flatter without the close flower.

thank you all

while being no pro, I find the lighting in this otherwise beautiful picture could be improved. It is a bits harsh and monodirectional, basically overexposing the hand which in turn immediately captures the attention. softer light and the addition of a source coming a bit from the left of the subject would have been my choice
