Re: PESO: I hope this isn't another flower picture

Thanks Boris. It was shot just as you see it. The background is grass, well beyond the DOF limit. I believe the DA50-200 lens was at f5.6 and 125mm. Paul -- Original message -- From: Boris Liberman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Paul was it *shot* this way or did you process

Paul was it *shot* this way or did you process it somehow? I find it extraordinary beautiful, which given the amount of flower pictures posted recently is rather strange, don't you think? ;-) Boris Paul Stenquist wrote: Damn. The list is going to hell. First it's the homeless, then

Really solid photograph, Paul. I can't decide which is better, the creamy background or the crisp foreground. -Brendan --- Paul Stenquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Damn. The list is going to hell. First it's the homeless, then children, now flowers. Can't anyone post some solid landscapes?

Thanks Rob. It's the DA 50-200. A lot of lens for the money. Paul On May 8, 2007, at 10:32 PM, Digital Image Studio wrote: On 09/05/07, Paul Stenquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Damn. The list is going to hell. First it's the homeless, then children, now flowers. Can't anyone post some solid

Thanks, Fernando. Yes, the DA 50-200 is probably my most used lens. It's perfect for wandering around outside with Grace. Paul On May 8, 2007, at 11:54 PM, Fernando Terrazzino wrote: I like the light and contrast of the image, very pleasing. And you did this with a consumer zoom... (was the

That's the loveliest photo of a Lilac bloom I've ever seen. Seriously. I believe we have French Lilacs at our house. Not sure which ones are French, as several varieties are planted side-by-side. How can you tell? Tom C. From: Paul Stenquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Pentax-Discuss Mail

Re: PESO: I hope this isn't another flower picture

If the list goes to hell with pix like this, who would complain? This is gorgeous, Paul--crisp foreground detail and texture with beautiful background, perfect exposure, and pleasing composition. If my azalea pix from the weekend were on slides instead of a hard drive, I'd burn them in

RE: PESO: I hope this isn't another flower picture

Thanks Tom. I only know the plants name because tit was tagged as a french lilac when I bought it at a nursery. It's blooms are larger than the typical lilac that I see around here, and the flowers are a lighter, slightly bluer shade than the locally common variety. Paul --

Re: PESO: I hope this isn't another flower picture

Thanks Rick. Azaleas are a tough shot. The plants are inherently busy and frequently have some frost damage. At least they do here, and that's if they even manage to survive the winter. Paul -- Original message -- From: Rick Womer [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the list
