I have no idea what kind of lizard this is but damn if it's fearless in the face of my lens. He kept popping out this threat display at me as I approached him for a portrait pose.

Wow. That's a VERY vibrant shade of red. Almost cartoonish like. And I'm seeing this on a 15 year old SDR display. Were you blinded by that heavy dose of red? Where did you capture this moment? Seems like a very exotic lizard species. Maybe in Indonesia or Sumatra?

Actually I took that shot right in my backyard fence line here in Hawaii. I think it some kind of invasive species that showed up in my neighborhood around 20 years ago. That guy refused to back down on me of which was to my advantage as far as getting a decent shot of it.

Color depth and saturation is I'm guessing a result of a stackup of factors that include the shaded lighting, the use of a circular polarizer, the camera itself (Canon R3) the lens (100L IS Macro I think)<----I'll check metadata on this and the scripted actions that I input into the initial post processing of all my photos.

I really like the mood your image brings out in me. Nice work there IronWing.

Went to brunch in Brooklyn today and was at a subway station I'd never been that was more elevated than any other one I've seen. Saw a new view and way to frame the one world trade center skyline. Also some intense looking woman on the subway with a serious stance going on.

Here is a macro of a tomato seedling I captured years ago, using a reversed 50mm Nikon prime on a D50.

I've heard of reverse lens macro but have never tried it or have seen the results thereof. Great job by the way. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, I also haven't been brave enough to put a lens on reversed to do this

Here's some images of hands prominently featured in the frame that I put together:

That's a great shot. I haven't tried reversing a lens since I moved to digital. I had a reversing ring for Pentax K mount. I don't know if they are still made.

Edit: Yep.

Good macro shot. Seems macro is on the minds of many!

Just randomly came her to post an old macro I took and then saw that, because I was just checking my kit and realized I miss using my macro lens to shoot stuff! Looking forward to some flowers and bugs!



speaking of bugs here is a little guy I shot in a similar flower to this one

 

[Fenixgoon]

slightly different takes, but a great night shooting in Stockholm, Sweden (back home in US now)

 

[jmagg]

Heres an odd one from years gone by.
Taken with a red wall in the background and flash bounced off the ceiling There's a small photochop at the wrist.

Nice! Is the flower a Hibiscus?

Playing around with some low light slower shutter shots...the moon was pretty bright and lots of clouds in the sky...

Took this around 11P last night so it was pretty dark out... F2.8 3/5 ISO 250

Havent really taken shots like this before and was really surpised how much color was actually captured in the shot...

 

[trenchfoot]

Awesome. It looks like something Picasso would want to paint.

 

[MrSquished]

Seen on this evening's dog walk. I've passed by this whole lot of times but I never looked up at that spot.

I like living around here. You see these flags, not Confederate ones.
