Wow Sujoy: Excellent work there. Fantastic shots. Where did you get that jumping spider. I am also searching for these. And the IQ of D3100 is just superb. Why don't you post on jjmehta also. there your work will be seen by great photographers and you will get better suggestions from masters.

Two from my side.

[sujoyp]

thanks faun & toofan for nice words

@desai_amogh ....the bee pic is great but the crow have too much vignetting (violet lining)...did you cropped it too much

@ajayashish...your tokri shot, church and flemingo are great...loved the church one.

@toofan...I too want a makkhi shot like that...but they just fly away....I would love to post at jjmehta but there people always criticize D3100 I am very unhappy with that..

BTW I am unable to stack all of ETs togather and take pic...I think it needs an external flash..and I am really loving this combo for macros..

I am still to find y 50mm is called a potrait and a low light lens...playing with macro nowdays

 

[Faun]

@toofan
holy cows

Next try Praying Mantis please

 

[toofan]

Thanks sujoy and faun.

Faun: I had a praying mentis shot but not that good. will post it later.

Sujoy: No one say D3100 is a bad cam. The results I had seen from you are just amazing. Do post there at gallery section these image. And I am sure you will learn many things. Remember Criticism is the best and fastest way to learn. These results are sharp and proves the power of cam.

50mm 1.8 is considered as low light lens. And for trying that do take some shots with this leans at f1.8 and see the bokeh and the brightness at viewfinder.

 

[a_medico]

Remember Criticism is the best and fastest way to learn.

I second that too. Many images which I thought were good were criticized. But for good. I have learnt a lot in last 4 mons there.

@toofan - As I said earlier, these are amongst best of your clicks. Nice BG too. Will try to learn more about macro setup from you.

[sujoyp]

Errr I have a bad habit of avoiding criticism...just cant take it in a good way Soo I learn from all the gurus silently and develop myself ....

50mm 1.8 is really good but I am not able to focus through viewfinder....its too dark...I find live view much easier while manual focusing...specially when we can zoom the subject and check the focus is correct or not

50mm at 1.8 is just too bright to get any bokeh...how do people manage??

@desai_amogh ....the bee pic is great but the crow have too much vignetting (violet lining)...did you cropped it too much

I usually use Gimp or.. recently Picasa to do all this.. and the crow (its not a crow, but a koyal looking bird with a long tail.. lol..) was clicked with a high zoom (must be like 40X with digital...) maybe thts the reason ...
