Popular Post Goompa Posted January 17, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2015 There is really not a lot of substance to my posts , I suppose I am just trying to gain more understanding , and be creative . Although there is a bug here and there and Nature nonetheless , all this is a learning curve for me , apologies to whom may be offended . Maybe this is just some light entertainment as well to break the boredom , but realistically Photography means a lot more to me than the mere content . We all have different agendas and different appraisals of our Photography , I can see many different genre' and the individual photographers skill to deliver their images for us all to view . I thank each and every one of you guys for the opportunity to view your images , your photos , whether a snap shot or a well composed image , technically perfect , edited , processed , over-baked , under or over-exposed , cast in a blue hue , with or without a date stamp , horizon lines not straight , I-phone images , blurry non-recognisable with dark shadows and jpeg images taken from the Speed Train whilst crossing a bridge in Lower Mongolia type images . Thanks . I suppose what I am trying to say is that I am an individual , I have my own style as well , it really does not make a difference to me if you like what I post , though if there is anything you don't agree with or like report or PM . Some issues have come to light recently but I will endeavour to continue with all your approval . For some strange unnerving compulsion I look forward to this daily slice of un-reality ! I really have to talk with my GP , I do need a higher dose . 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have heaps of em & they don't bother us at all...must be the kerosene! I was chopping some chicken up one time and one chewed a hunk (about 8mm thick) out of a chicken breast as I was cutting and flew off with it! 28mm @ 2.0, ISO 400.... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted January 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2015 Red Helen, Papilio helenus........(Please correct me if I am wrong) First time in my life that I have ever managed to capture a butterfly in flight. It must of been a funny sight to see me darting around chasing that butterfly with the viewfinder glued to my eye. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob8891 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 ^^ Hope you had the other eye open, to avoid trees, ponds, dogs, etc! Beautiful shot...You and Goomps are going to be going head to head in this thread, methinks! (And everyone will win with so many terrific photos to look at) Get off your assets Goompa.

Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted January 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2015 Get off your assets Goompa. You've got competition First part I totally agree with,second part not! Me ole mate Goomps is lightyears ahead in any genre of photography (especially macro) as are many of you other guys that post on the photo forum,I'm just happy to add what I can when I can to be part of this fine community. As for keeping one eye open mate........bloody dangerous hobby is toggin,came back with a stubbed toe and a piece missing out of my shin,not to mention the countless red ant bites,orrible little critters,but they sure know how to make you dance! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Goompa Posted January 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2015 Fantastic capture shaggy , I know how it feels to get the shot you have been waiting for . enter Macro wildlife is not easy , sometimes you nail the shot , other times it is just a blur . enter I never use a tripod so many of my images are somewhat blurry , it is all about shutterspeed and dof. enter Still a lot of fun though. enter FLY 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
