Reyno Rosete 10-01-2006, 08:25 PM Glad for your comment Alex, thank you. Marton_Benitez 10-01-2006, 09:21 PM Lovely morning :) Did some of those earlier too :) But it was too dark so my pics weren't that nice at iso1600 :) Squirrels too :D is this with the 500 f4? Reyno Rosete 10-02-2006, 12:41 AM Thanks Marton. The doves were taken with the 100-400 and in-camera flash was used. Tha last two were taken with the 500 and a Sigma DG flash unit with Better Beamer attachment were used. The purpose of using a flash was to compliment the available light and to be able to show details in the underbelly, as you'll notice, there's the absence of shadows in these areas in all shots. The one thing I never expected was the squirrel's eyes. It created a red-eye effect but it turned red and yellow. christopher cortez 10-02-2006, 02:11 AM that squirrel has evil eyes!!! EEEVVIILLLLL!!! zandy_marantal 10-02-2006, 02:36 AM Nice shots Reyno! Early morning's the best time for photography IMO, everything's peaceful and quiet and the light is just perfect. I'm an insomniac though so I rarely get that chance. :( regards. Reyno Rosete 10-02-2006, 09:43 PM Never intended it to look that way Christopher. Thanks Zandy. I almost always do it early in the morning or after 3 in the afternoon as the light is not as harsh as mid-day and it's easier to expose in these light conditions. christopher cortez 10-02-2006, 10:41 PM sir reyno, dont get me wrong ha, i like your shots....its fun lang to say the squirrel is evil hehehe......i saw a squirrel running across st james park here in london but i wasnt fast enough to click a picture before it got to a tree and out of the rain.... |
