95 Nov 22 Reply Thanks, Gloria. Agreed.. It probably would present a more interesting view if I crop a bit closer.. Nov 22nd
95 Nov 22 Reply Nice suggestion, Tom. The picture seems to have even more life.. :-) Nov 20th
95 Nov 22 Reply You are right, Carol.. It probably is due to DOF.. It's a lovely and interesting capture.. I like Tom's idea of rotating it in a small angle with the head facing upward..
Thanks for sharing such nice pic.

95 Nov 22 Reply Hi Tom, Thank for the nice job dodging and burning the left part.. The overall image looks much better after that.. Again, I should have spent more time reviewing the overall look, esp the exposure.. As also mentioned by Carol, the left portion is a bit over-exposed... Something I overlooked. Thanks again. Nov 20th
95 Nov 22 Reply Good suggestion, Stuart.. I also wonder what the outcome would look like if I shot it at 1:1.. Hope the next bloom comes up and I could try it again.. Nov 20th
95 Nov 22 Reply Hey Tom, great suggestions.. I prefer the diagonal one better.
I was thinking the side-way layout would please the human eye direction better. In fact the actual flower does come up at an angle.

95 Nov 22 Reply Thanks, Carol.
Yes. I did tone down the green as I think it distract the subject a bit. I was trying to fix the small white blown-out on the left but failed.. It was caused by the side-light. It does not really bother one yet..
Thanks for suggesting the different angles.. Very good point. I like the diagonal once suggested by Tom.

95 Nov 22 Comment Carol, this is already an outstanding image. I also see that the legs are not in focus.. just wondering whether higher shutter speed could help? Nov 12th
95 Nov 22 Comment I zoomed in to look at the details.. It's amazingly sharp in most parts.. but frustratingly some parts seem to have gotten blown out.. I dare not trying to capture macro images on crystal. I am interested to know how to avoid those blown-out areas even after stacking.. Sorry I have no contribution to your question. Nov 12th
95 Nov 22 Comment Gloria, a very interesting image of live oysters.. From my observation, the direct sunlight did not cause much problem. I still see some shadow on the right side. It would be even more interesting if you zoom in (or crop in) even more (the top left corner is a bit blur anyways).. Nice pic. Nov 12th
