Different shot (inner part) of the same flower as before. It's the shot as is minus a minor crop to rotate it some degrees. It seemed perfect for B&W.

Finally no rain.

Let's see how far I can go with the "ordinary".

Why my passifloras look the way they do

Passiflora arida fruit

I'm in a phase were bright colors are getting a bit tiresome and am leaning more towards a muted, slightly desaturated look.

I redid the baby-snail of before. For better or worse?

I prefer the second

At the edge of macro.



The easiest edge.

I really like the b-w version, it is very intriguing to look at

Decided to try out a close-up of satsuma using back lighting.

In macro it all appears to be about being at exactly the right spot at exactly the right moment.

And the second of our friend. It's ironic that the snail moved too fast to get more good shots.

Actually if it moves "at snails pace", you can take a series of images - say a burst of 10, for focus stacking!

Snail pace is something completely different when you're this close to it.

I wanted these frontal shots but it's hard when you have to manually focus while the snail is moving towards you. I just had a small burst of sun rays on that area and the snail gave it all she could to get out of those quickly. It was pretty fast and after not too long decided to take the route down.

The two pictures show pretty well the "enormous" DOF I have to work with while it is moving and I'm moving. Not as easy as I hoped it to be.

Focus stacking this is impossible I fear.

Found these lurking in the garden after dark.

It's raining outside so I'm experimenting. I put my close-up filter inside a lens hood and put that hood reversed on my macro which results into me taking shots with a reversed diopter.

The results are worth experimenting further but the shots themselves are closing in at extreme and borderline the abstract.

Rainy day here so did a little macro.

Those are nice. Is that the natural look or did you apply filters?

Well spotted .

then they were adjusted to make them more colourful.
