A mono conversion on this and you have an 'Ansel Adams'. Can you bring the rhs. shadow up a tad?
Love it.

I think Mrs AFB has been looking at these lovely shots when she mentioned we should get a pond. I suggested she get a Gardener!
I reckon a small grounds crew should be able to do it!I think Mrs AFB has been looking at these lovely shots when she mentioned we should get a pond. I suggested she get a Gardener!
I certainly can't. Cuts into my photography time!I reckon a small grounds crew should be able to do it!
I kept the shadows dark as the background is a bit busy otherwise. It makes the leaves pop more having the darkness.
Here's a B&W conversion - don't think I can be likened to the great Ansel though

Yup, you're right, why didn't I?I love seagoing vessels as subjects.
It is the advanced weathering even on newish fittings that attracts me.
Isolating components is a very quick source of satisfaction and they tend to move less than flowers in the wind.

Why didn't you snap that little stick?

Well that's very kind. Thanks. I'll take that complimentMethinks you protest in vain sir.
In my "blagged" copy of 400 AA images book there are numerous images of this ilk.
The cropping is tighter in his but I think that is probably the editor (books).

Nicely done. Now I'll have to think of a July challenge!Okay, so this is for @Apple fanboy. Not quite a bee chasing a butterfly, and actually I think it's a moth, but nevertheless, at least they are in the same frame!
I think tomorrow morning before the insects get active I have to cut these all back and try for a second bloom later in the season. Getting a little ragged looking.
