Shot in a zoo.

...I just wish the bottom left hand side was in focus ! But I know also that it could not be in focus in this composition and DOF! A soothing one for the eyes. Lots of details. Excellent background! I like the water drop at the junction !

 

Very well done! Congratulations!

The bird feeder was just removed for cleaning when this one came and

sat there. Seemed to be disappointed not to find its food!

Thanks!

...I appreciate your appreciation ! Very frustrating but very rewarding too! Isn't it ?

...dont worry, you will do much better than this !

 

Thanks again for liking it .

... for liking what I liked !

Is this acceptable to you ? I found it kind of cute! Thanks!

..Thanks.

 

Here is the info.

 

Canon MP-E 65 at 3X on a Canon EOS 1Ds MK II. Gitzo 1548 MkII tripod with an Arca Swiss ballhead and RRS macro rail. ISO 400 f 16, 1/4 second. Natural light. No flash.

 

Kim! Thanks !

Nice capture! They look really funny!

At 3X. I have no clue what those white threads are.

..thanks for correcting me. I must have been in a hurry! It is pretty obvious, what it is! Sorry !

Honey bee on a milk thistle. Your opinion please.

..thank you very much for your comments. Yes, they are really challenging and that is where the fun is! My aim is to remove the feeder with flowers or simulated flowers to trick them to come to feed and then shoot them.

... for lilikng the image!

 

Narayanan,

 

Thank you for your suggestion. I have not tried a lot of sharpening as, in my experience, oversharpening causes more harm than good to the picture. I will try it though, just to see the result !

My first day's work !

 

Mission- shoot a Hummingbird!

 

Impression: Not an easy task! Those little creatures are amazing,

but I will continue to be challenged!

Shot in the morning against the sun at an angle. The sky was cloudy

though. Your comments please.

 

Thanks for viewing

Your opinion please. Any suggestion to improve ?

Dilip, for the appreciation. Somehow, this is one of my more favourite ones!

Shot in Northern Sikkim, India, in the wilderness at a height of

about 11000ft. I know it is not a perfect shot but could not resist

sharing it because of its rich color!

 

Thanks for viewing.

..for your comments and valuable time.

...for liking it. I appreciate your feedback.

Please have a look-this was a chance encounter

I was surprised with the result of my 400 DO with the 1.4 TC. Shot

wide open at 5.6. Actually, I was waiting for a kingfisher and while

waiting, decided to take this shot when i saw the spider

approaching. I liked it.

 

Your opinion please. Thanks for viewing.
