Ajay: nice series. Liked the last one for obvious reasons. Nicely composed.

Guys...the high resolution wallpapers of animals are clicked by DSLR or any other
coz they look splendid & not a single pixelation....

^^sujoyp nice
which camera u used & lens???

how much does Raynox DCR-250 cost?and is it good for macro?

 

[INS-ANI]

Sujyop.. nice one! Seems like you have quite an attachment with insects

 

[sujoyp]

@Zangetsu Thanks...I have used Nikon D3100+50mm 1.8+Extension tube

Dont worry about gear...toofan takes 100 times better macros with similar gear...Its more about technique

@INS-ANI...insects r much more beautiful & colorful then human and animals...I wish someday my task becomes bit easier with a Macro lens

 

[INS-ANI]

They r good, but without additional gears they may look alike.

Ajay: liked the 1st one.

 

[Zangetsu]

toofan,
the girl photo clicked is amazing...
so u have used D90 with two flash from Nissin & Vivitar & umbrella
Btw where did u put the umbrella in front of the object or back?

 

[toofan]

Thanks Zengetsu, The White Umbrella was used in between subject and Flash, to diffuse the light.

ooh so we keep flash behind of the umbrella...I thought we keep the flash head facing the umbrella so that light reflects from the umbrella and give soft white light...

You can do it either way, bounce or through the umbrella.

I liked the first one toofan, I remember a similar shot from stuge.

Okk...my knowledge about flash is too limited...once I get hold of one then will see what I can do...
