45 Aug 19 Reply thanks Bai, it's a beautiful flower, and interesting to shoot. It's a native wild flower in IL. now, it's not big, but interesting to photograph from just about every angles. Even @f/18, I still not able to put them all in focus with micro lens. I might have to try focus stacking, which I was try not to do, but sigh!

I'll work on this in PS some more, to see what works, thanks again.

45 Aug 19 Comment nice waterfall image, may be a little bit darker on the edge, tree leaves on the left. Overall, a nice one. Aug 15th
45 Aug 19 Comment very nice, sharp, details, contrast. especially from a ordinary door way, original, nice transformation. love it.
That remind me to dig out an old photo earlier this year took at an university campus chapel door.

45 Aug 19 Comment A great image, lines, shadows, details. Of course, if there're some wild flowers add color in the foreground would be icing on cake. Don't mind me, just enjoy and dreaming, :) Aug 12th
45 Aug 19 Comment good eyes, and take the initial move of taking the photos, I'd have pass it without second thoughts, learn something, thanks.
It might not be an option any more, but keep wondering if you shot that photo from a few steps to the left, thus allow the post to block the window(?), so they won't be in the frame and what'd be the image like!?

45 Aug 19 Comment interesting subject and details, nice work on ps to clean up the background, can't image the amount of work/efforts involve with that! just in case you got a chance to go back in PS, see if further work can be done around the right neck and left helmet to clean up the edges. Good image. Aug 12th
45 Aug 19 Comment wonderful image, especially the time and effort to capture in multiple shots then stitch together.
like the cloud formation and details of the shadow, then the light adds, fogs on water, add, good work.

45 Aug 19 Reply thanks, it's a rewarding and fun early morning, imaging multiple models stand there for you to choose different poses, light, shots. Aug 5th

75 Aug 19 Reply good luck, they are nimble, I'd also suggest use a zoom lens, so reflexible in reach, etc. till found a pattern of its movement. Aug 14th
75 Aug 19 Comment good light on subject, details visible.

Closer crop, and darken the white a bit more. Avoid high light around your subject, distraction.

75 Aug 19 Comment a 90mm, gosh, you'e brave to get that close, or flora was the original intent, bee just icing on the cake?

hand held or tripod?

if bee is your intend, then I'd suggest using shutter least 1/500s and up, they are active, move around a lot.

75 Aug 19 Comment soft bird image.

the background, white spots around the edges, caused by the noise from original capture or introduced in post process?

didn't list any shooting parameters, but from original image provided, looks pretty far off even with 560..

75 Aug 19 Comment nice. Aug 14th
75 Aug 19 Comment it seems the image of the bird is clear, sharp in general. With strong water reflection in front of the bird, I would suggest in the future, watch the background, then take shots, where the water reflection could be minimized or avoid. Aug 14th
75 Aug 19 Comment yeh, thanks for clarify that. Also, I wasn't sure about how strictly are the rules between nature+ vs nature, if it's ok to remove/clone out some pixels... guess in nature+, we're are ok with those minor adjustment. ..
huh?
Aug 12th
75 Aug 19 Comment would try it, however, that won't do much to the distraction, would it? or should I consider a different crop, let me see if I got some room on the bottom of the frame.. Thanks Aug 12th
