Did mull over suggesting B&W, but think that the colour mix works very well and does not obscure the story.

Wow, a capture in a million, very well done, Pat!
Great introduction and summary, Federico.

Mistyisle started the topic Three butterflies and a bee in the forum General Photo Chit Chat 3wk, 6d ago
Photos I took recently, including three types of butterfly, less than two metres from our villa in our retirement village. Am pretty keen to do more close-ups so thinking of buying a macro lens – these are not sharp enough, I believe.

I like the last image, Erik, four people in their own crowded worlds! The lady on her cellphone, the guy dozing, the lady wondering what to prepare for dinner (though hopefully her husband is preparing the family dinner!- it sometimes happens). The guy standing up, praying for the next stop to be soon. All crowded together, great story.

I really like the subject nature and the crop, Erik. The only thing that disturbs me is the round glow of light towards the top, just beneath the angled girder. I would get rid of it as being a distraction.

Hi Diane – Did I crop? Certainly did, the result you see is approx 1/36th of the original. Have just measured and it is very clear that was a bad move. In the days following I have moved a helluva lot closer.
Hi Rob – I did try moving the black point up, but because of the big crop the results were not good at all.
Hi Federico – I take your…[Read more]

This image is sheer poetry! A fitting tribute, as has already been said 👌

Before I read your and Diane’s comments, I thought that it would be good to include more of the building on the left. I am not concerned about the cropping on the bottom.

I agree with Diane, Lenny, and that Dahlia’s solution is the way to go 🙂

Mistyisle started the topic Bumble Bee on plant in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 2mo ago
I have had very little experience in photographing bees, just the occasional grab shot, none of which came out well. Nevertheless, as there is a bed of yellow and orange flowers not far from our villa, on which many bees were feasting, I decided to learn a bit and give a more concerted effort. Here is one of the two best. Initially I am just tr…[Read more]

I agree with Federico that the spot is a plus. Also with Rob about desaturating the blue.

I like both, but would remove the second gourd as not necessary to the story. Agree with L&S comment as I, too, would never think of the 2nd as ordinary!

Hi everyone, I feel a bit overwhelmed by all of the insightful comments and suggestions, it is all very much appreciated.
@federicoalegria Federico, your really nice comments about the colour palette (right image) and her expression are reassuring. Yes, I became aware later that the sun was in her eyes on the left. If the right oppo…[Read more]

These are two pics taken at different times of one of our gardeners. Donna is in protective gear in the left one (obviously). Am very pleased of the result in some ways, but she is squinting a bit in both. The day was cloudy for the right hand one, so it may be a bit of a habit of hers. I also took the one on the right with a prime 85 mms f1.…[Read more]

Mistyisle started the topic Two tuis on a flax branch in the forum General Photo Chit Chat 4mo, 4wk ago
Yesterday, I took this pic of two tuis, who are one of our best known native birds. They were feeding on the nectar of the flax, currently in flower. Most often you see one on its own, but less often two of them, a pair, like these.

Thanks @el-dub Mmm, not sure about the sillhouette, but will give it a try, Lenny.
Thanks @dahliaambrose, wow, great spotting re the front shot not being the best, I will definitely look carefully for the best one at the end of my next shoot!

Hello everyone, so sorry I have been absent for a while, but life has intruded. Here is a composite image of a series of photos I have taken of one of our grand-children, doing one of her gymnastic routines. Have tried to capture the outcome. However, feel that I could do better! Should I try to photograph without a skirting board in the…[Read more]

I really like the colours, Rob, plus the orange on the vehicle and also in the building behind. Actually, forming a triangle. Maybe find the overall composition a bit tight- hmm, still mulling over that!
