The snow has, at long last, turned to water! [A Grass City Photo Thread]

[Durchii]

... And not a moment too soon.



Yes, I realize this thread doesn't exactly fit my usual 10-20 photos per-thread profile, but I'm planning on using this thread to post not only my work over the course of the season, but yours as well.

Of course, don't let this deter you from making your own threads with work you've done, that's not what I'm trying to do here, but it would be nice to have any of your spring/summer related photos posted here as well. If we keep this up for a while, we should have a fairly decent collection up and ready by fall.

Well, let's hope that this works. I'll keep this thread up with my nature work as much as possible, but I hope to see much of yours in the near future!

These first shots were taken over the course of an hour or two last week.

Canon 30D with a 100mm f/2.8 Macro.

And, thatcrazydude, right after she put that thing to her lips and I took the picture, a breeze picked up blew most of the pistils into her mouth! It was absolutely amazing.

Not recent but my favourite photo. I chased this damn thing for like 15 minutes before getting the shot.


I don't know if this one is post-processed or not.

Yeah, I only have one or two butterfly shots in my entire collection. They're hard enough to find around here unless you happen to be in an area with heavy flower growth, and plus they're incredibly skiddish as it is.

That's a very nice shot, though! I don't use that out of frame compositon very often, but it does work from time to time. I would kill to see that one with just a touch more depth of field, but that's just my take on it. If you were at ISO 100, you could have kicked it up to 400 and stopped down once or twice with your aperture, bringing more of the butterfly into focus.

I made the same mistake with the first shot you see here, but I was lucky enough to even grab this one before it took off and left. The second one is pretty dull as far as perspective goes, but I liked it regardless.

Finally I guess I will prove that I take pictures of other things than bud. Here's just a few out of hundreds, but I'll make a thread some time.

Walking through Manitou Springs with two cameras and my girlfriend's best friend earlier today. There are only a few shots here, nothng terribly exciting, but I'll be editing more later tonight.

I'm posting these shots in another thread in General dedicated solely to the pregnancy, but I figured they were qualified enough for this one as well.
