2 Feb 26 Reply Thanks so much, Piers, for your accolades. Means a lot! Feb 27th
2 Feb 26 Reply Thanks so much for your comments, Martin! Yes, I really liked those two upper leaves, hence the name "peek-a-boo". I literally had to peek into the bush to get this flower Feb 27th
2 Feb 26 Reply Thank you, Shirley! No, my hand is not that steady, especially shooting closeup, hence the motivation to look at the OM camera. The features it offers for macro/closeup shooting are wonderful. I know a bunch of birders who also love this camera because of the micro-four-thirds light lenses. I will still use my Nikon's for stills or Lensbaby shooting but I use a tripod most of the time for both. Feb 6th
2 Feb 26 Reply Thank you, Jim! I like those two upper left corner leaves as well. That's where I got the name for the image. The flower was actually hiding causing me to move some of the surrounding greens out of the way for the shot. Feb 6th
2 Feb 26 Comment Another great image, Martin! I love the angled perspective that you composed in this image. My only suggestion would be to add a bit more saturation to the entire image. Glad you made the hike! Feb 6th
2 Feb 26 Comment Welcome to the group, Carter! Interesting light falling on the shed. I love the movement in the clouds. Looks like it was a very quiet evening. Looking forward to your participation in our group. Feb 6th
2 Feb 26 Comment Hi Shirley, as others have already mentioned, your crop is great and the side lighting has helped give dimension to the image. I'm not familiar with Nikon's 610D, but I have shot with other Nikon full-frame DSLR's and under the menu you can change the frame size to a DX (cropped frame). It would have increased your 500mm to 750mm. Still a bit far but it might help in future outings. Feb 6th
2 Feb 26 Comment I love your ICM image by itself. I feel the duck is in too much focus and imo looks as though it was pasted there after the fact. Perhaps a bit more motion or disturbance in the water and/or shadow behind the duck would help. Feb 6th
2 Feb 26 Comment This is a great image, Jim, and your editing and manipulation has really focused one's eye on the art of the creator! Very well done! Feb 6th
