Oh my! I am really behind in here! OR, awesome photos as usual! My, Coira has grown and what a cutie! Love the natural lighting! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing more!
Thank you, lassies. I'm glad you liked it. I'll be sure to pass those pats on the back on to Angela.
This is a new one I took on Tuesday. I was piling wood in the shop and saw this guy on the wall.... about six inches from a light bulb. Well, I knew the lighting wouldn't get any better. I'm really starting to feel the limitations of the stock lens, as this macro is as close as I could get. Still, I think it takes up just the right amount of frame. The funny thing is he's (and I assign gender without proper knowledge ) actually vertical.
Oh, thanks Rose! I haven't been in this thread in a while.
Anyway, I haven't added anything in a while, so here are a few shots of the 'pond' across the road from our house, and Pringles Lake, which is about two minutes away on my daily commute. I had the Canon mounted on my tripod and ran out to catch these before leaving for work. There were bucket-loads of dew on the weeds, though, so I arrived at work with my pants soaked half way up my thighs.
These are stock and un-doctored photos, so forgive me if the colours don't exactly pop.
I really like this one. Believe it or not, that is the moon, and yes, those are stars. I took these probably two hours after sunset with a 30second exposure.
These aren't spectacular photos, but they were fun to take and I enjoy them for their honesty.
Hi everybody. A very belated thank you again, Rose. These are a little less honest, but not much has changed other than some work with B/C and a bit of saturation (very little, the reds you see here are pretty much exactly what I saw, and no hue adjustments were made).
I saw this just as I was pulling into our road last night and ran to get the camera.
Thank-you for posting the photos Oldraven. They are beautiful.
