First day with my new lens (105mm Nikkor micro):

1/1000
f/13.0
105mm
ISO 640
Exposure: +2/3 EV

I'm still learning, obviously. Mainly in dealing with the depth of field.

thats fair enuf if you feel a websized image at 130kb odd requires a watermark then by all means, each to their own. this is however a photo gallery type of thread and its difficult to appreciate the quality of a photo with that watermark.

Understandable. I myself do that with my customer shoots but you could lower the opacity so its not as dominant.

Rooz, have you thought of that shot of the toys increasing with age as you go down the line. Starting with a dummy, into toy cars and ending up a with an SLR or car keys?

Accord I love your bumblebee but have you got any noise reduction software to hit it with. Or if not, mask the background and give it a little GB.

Here's one copying Lukas' work and using his suggestions.

Hey Koop,
love the bee, that lens looks to be a winner.

DPR, beautiful scene. Filter or something cause darker blue in middle or just natural sky?

Rooz, come back to the bug side, I need advice.

I love this rooz! I normally dont like the borders, but it really really works for this image! reminds me of a promo poster I once saw for Pixar! Well done!!

Do you think those tail lights make her bumper look big.

From the Tall Ship festival in Halifax, NS last week.
