Re: PESO - oats
Unlike other shots of the same genre, yours is significantly more subtle. And therefore it just works! AlunFoto wrote: Playing with fill-flash... What say you?

Re: PESO - oats
Well seen, Jostein. Tiny nits; even though the background is nicely OOF, ideally it could have been even softer. Oat shape is extremely nice, but can't help wishing I could see a little less stem.

Re: PESO - oats
Jostein, I love the lighting of the oats, but find the horizon distracting. The blue of the sky or the tan of the fields would be a better background. The strong three bands behind the oats is pulling my attention away from the oats. Were you trying for something special there? Regards, Bob S.

Re: PESO - oats
Well, the fill flash does make itself known. It certainly dims the background a bit - kind of gives a contrast boost to the oats. I think I would like to see just a bit less flash and a slight boost to the background light. Hope you did lots of experiments. -- Best regards, Bruce Thursday, September 25, 2008, 1:43:25 AM, you wrote: A Playing with fill-flash... A What say you?

Re: PESO - oats
As is all too often the case, my message was not that clear. :/ What I intended was that had the stem been slightly shorter, the seed head would have been slightly further to the right.

Re: PESO - oats
Dave, Mike, Jack, Bob S., Ken, Bruce, John S., Ann, Thanks for taking time to comment! The decision to pop the flash in the first place was to mute the background relative to the straw. As some of you remarked, it's not all together unobtrusive still. It is just another one of those situations where I thought I had a good idea, and wasn't quite able to execute it the envisioned way. My other attempts falls short of that too, but I'll have another look next time I sit down by my desktop PC, Hopefully Tuesday or Wednesday... :-) Off to chase the colours of autumn for a couple of days.
