Toofan the macro is good as usual but background is superb...I really envy the background..its looking like a painting

Can you tell me the secret ...is it coz of bigger aperture like 1.8 and 2.8 or is it coz of high magnification

 

[toofan]

thanks sujoy.

This is shot at f-8. So the the other option of High Magnification and from very close to the subject.

Another one. A more closer look.

Butterflies are too active... It doesn't even stay still for few seconds. It's great you are clicking butterflies every now and then...

Stork (I guess)

Fly Macro

 

[sujoyp]

@nac yaah butterfly shot is difficult I never managed to click them

your 2nd pic look good but y ulta...
3rd pic is too blueish...dont u use flash on macros??
That fly is goodlooking

 

[nac]

Fly was in the ceiling, that's the reason it's upside down.

I don't use flash in general. But I have used few times. If I turn on the flash when I am shooting macros, shadow of the lens hood (I don't know the exact term here) would fall on the subject. Flash won't be much of a use when I am very close to the subject.

Blue is the colour of the wall paint, so it's blue. Will it be different if have used flash?

Yes, it's looking good wearing coolers

I like the pictures of the bird flies over the lake...

And you need to change "the name stamping (aka watermark). It's disturbing... Try some transparent watermarking.

Thanks Nac.

I will workout that (stamping color & font) tonight.

 

[sujoyp]

Nice shots astroutkarsh...but Nac is right that pink watermark do not look good...try white or design some logo for yourself
