I shot this with a Nikon N80 and Tamron 90mm macro using Kodak Gold 200. It is cropped. Please tell me what you think and how you would improve it.

Wings 05-15-2004, 07:12 AM Well done Lava Lamp, I really liked it from the first second I saw it and that's all for me what counts. There is always room for improvement, but then again, every photograph can be improved, even if it's just something minor. Thanks for sharing this great shot with us! :) ACArmstrong 05-15-2004, 08:39 AM Great color. I really like closeups like this one. At first glance, I thought we were getting a true profile and seeing only one wing, but upon closer examination, I see that there is a back wing and a front wing. Maybe adjust the DOF to get both wings in focus. Great shot. bobbythebandit 05-15-2004, 11:31 AM I agree with Soren.Colours are lovely and pose excellent.Only back wing being slightly unsharp,stops it from being perfect. natatbeach 05-15-2004, 04:42 PM Dito on what been said---well composed rich colors but either blur and change the angle of the back wing or bring it more into focus... without that minor thing a beautiful shot... gahspidy 05-15-2004, 08:25 PM Beautifully framed. Great looking image, I agree with other comments about backwing and possible slightly different angle. But really a nice image as it is. Young Shooter 05-16-2004, 06:17 AM i like this picture its very interresting, i think its awsome PuckJunkey 05-16-2004, 09:51 AM What an excellent shot you've composed. The only thing I'd say that isn't quite perfect is the focus plane. I can't tell if it's just my eyes (because we're talking a small detail here) but it looks like parts of the butterfly / the flowers next to it are a *tiny* bit soft. Nothing a little judicious USM couldn't fix, but I thought I'd mention it. Either way, post-card city! Heck, poster-city if you have GenuineFractals and/or a high MP camera. Great job. |
