68 Apr 18 Comment It was difficult to get closer without risking my camera rigs, and I had limited time to shoot. He also was not out in the water for long. I got some better shots of Moro Rock later on, but the surfers for the most part were too far out to shoot well. Apr 12th
68 Apr 18 Comment It's hard to tell if the butterflies are flying into the disk or out of it. I think that trying to show the butterflies rising up from the disk like MC Escher had in some of his woodcuts would be something to try.

68 Apr 18 Comment Great subject - Lots of detail, a feast for the eyes evoking the westward migration. Excellent capture, and post-processing. Apr 12th
68 Apr 18 Comment Very nice image - I like the cloud reflection making the pond to be very deep.
If you are going to be shooting moving subjects, you need to adjust for a fast shutter speed. The easiest way to do this is to shorten the exposure time and compensate by using a higher ISO setting. This will provide less blurring due to a moving subject. It also helps if you have lots of natural illumination. A good place to practice with different settings is to shoot moving water. That is probably the most difficult subjects to "Freeze".

68 Apr 18 Comment These creatures are magnificent! Your image captures the impressive size of them without a reference frame. Yes, it is monochromatic, but that is what is available. Lots of detail in the image to explore. Apr 12th
