And great shot too. That depth of field thing I am yet to master. Is it an effect you put in afterwards or with the camera?carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787018321269238581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-49584969818280139412009-03-13T11:19:00.000+11:002009-03-13T11:19:00.000+11:00This is exactly what I want to achieve, the placin...This is exactly what I want to achieve, the placing of the subject, the clarity, the blur of the background.

I agree it is a ripper of a photo and love the DoF effects. Some of them are just so well defined, even without zooming in I can see perfect outlines. And Tim does not even seem to be twitching ... <BR/><BR/>Take care with driving in the rain and through swollen areas.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-41735928614791258472009-03-09T23:33:00.000+11:002009-03-09T23:33:00.000+11:00Oh, the white tufts I suspect are bees in the sunl...Oh, the white tufts I suspect are bees in the sunlight and in the foreground out of the Depth of Field, so out of focus.<BR/><BR/>It was a hard choice to make, but I think fading the background at the expense of a few bees was the right one.bitingmidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593806233011328620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-60366236648859013752009-03-09T23:31:00.000+11:002009-03-09T23:31:00.000+11:00The reason Tim is so free of the little beggars is...The reason Tim is so free of the little beggars is that they were swarming in my hair (or what's left of it).<BR/><BR/>It reminded me of being on a summer picnic in Canberra really, only there were bees instead of blowies.<BR/><BR/>Julie, the stingless bees are little fellas indeed, there are one or two there in perfect profile and you can actually see the bee character! I do rather enjoy having these little blokes around. <BR/><BR/>Now with a few hundred mm of rain due over the next few days, I wonder if I'll get out!bitingmidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12593806233011328620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025185028400769912.post-40485814033301038582009-03-09T22:52:00.000+11:002009-03-09T22:52:00.000+11:00This one is a ripper.

They look more like biting-midgies than they look like bees!<BR/><BR/>Washed out were we? Did not sound so charming from even way down here, watching that thing swirl on BoM was unnerving. But I gather not much damage occurred ...Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.com
