Re: PESO: Snowdrop

Paul, I always look forward to your annual snowdrop pic, and was wondering when it would appear! On this one, I would crop out the right 40%. The composition is "heavy" on the left, and the large OOF flower on the right is distracting. Rick --- Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ever

Thanks Frank. I assume you're having the same wonderful weather that we've been getting. It's so very welcome after a long hard winter. Paul On Apr 7, 2008, at 10:27 AM, frank theriault wrote: > On Mon, Apr 7, 2008 at 9:40 AM, Paul Stenquist > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Shot this one with th

Re: PESO: Snowdrop and Company

Great shot Paul. I like the bee in the frame, and the tiny bits in focus. BTW his name is Eric. He's a half a bee Dave On Mon, Apr 7, 2008 at 10:16 AM, Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks Jack. Didn't know he was a honey bee, but I could see he was > different than our usual bum

Thanks Jack. Didn't know he was a honey bee, but I could see he was different than our usual bumblebees and yellow jackets. Paul On Apr 7, 2008, at 10:12 AM, Jack Davis wrote: > Very nice, Paul! The "rare" honey bee is, also, good to see. ;) > > Jack > --- Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote

Very nice, Paul! The "rare" honey bee is, also, good to see. ;) Jack --- Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Shot this one with the Vivitar Series 1 90/2.5 and the 1:1 optical > adapter. Not enough DOF to keep everything in focus, but with the > center pistol sharp I find it pleasing.

PESO: Snowdrop and Company

Shot this one with the Vivitar Series 1 90/2.5 and the 1:1 optical adapter. Not enough DOF to keep everything in focus, but with the center pistol sharp I find it pleasing. http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=7141887 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/l

Paul, You got even closer this year. Nice! I think my snowdrop (only 1 survivor) is gone. It sure was nice out today in Chicago. Regards, Bob S. On Sun, Apr 6, 2008 at 8:21 PM, Jack Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Snowdrops (didn't know that's what they are called) have a beautiful > shape an

Re: PESO: Snowdrop

Snowdrops (didn't know that's what they are called) have a beautiful shape and appear absolutely pristine. In your place, I'd, also, be pleased about their appearance. Sorry to say, but it feels heavy and cluttered to the left, Paul. Jack --- Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Every year
