I actually started with the yellow flower/weed. Then noticed the other weed and ended up with the nail head cause the wind didn't affect it!  | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

John, these were all hand held so I was a bit skeptical about sharpness and DOF until I had them downloaded.
Thanks Dick, who would of thought weeds could look good?  | | | |

Deb- In windy conditions try moving your head and camera side to side really fast while holding the shutter button down. It won't work but it would make a great video
You did good. I like the nail head and the yellow flower best

You did good. I like the nail head and the yellow flower best |  Humm...Nope, won't work Michael. (No, I didn't try it!)  Remember the 1DsMkII doesn't have video capabilities. So It would just be extremely blurry pictures.
Thanks, the flower is ok, but I like the nailhead with shallow dof.
I tried to get all four quotes in one post, but I can't remember how to do that.  | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
