Leaf Lunch - Toronto, May 2008
 
I walked out the back door and this guy was contemplating whether he could get away with having my poodles for lunch!:eek: So I shot him... with my camera.:p

Not the sharpest macro shot, but I like the way it turned out he was just int he process of taking off and I got the start of the motion blur on the wings and a nice shadow on the leaf.

It's been a pleasure seeing everybody's awesome stuff... hope to see you in next month's thread! Tomorrow is the first day of hurricane season on da east coast, so maybe I'll be able to put up some surfing pictures for a change.:p

Aperture should be able to read it, what file format are you using?

I see the same problem with the Pentax K20D -- it can be read by Aperture, but only 2.0+, new cameras won't be supported on 1.5

I assume it is the change to the Raw engine 2.0, but it seems to me this is the kind of decision that could hurt Aperture's acceptance over the long term.
 
I like everything about this pic... but I wonder why you've cropped it like this. I think I would have composed it with either the yachts centred... or with a bit more space in front of the boats, rather than behind. Of course, this may just be me wanting everything 'ship-shape'... ;)

I kept the boats central because of a big chimney on the horizon on the left hand side which was spewing out smoke or something. I guessed it was better to compose without that than with.

Thanks very much for the comments though Doylem, much appreciated.
 
It¡s awesome to see so many awesome bug macros here! Time for me to do my part:

Does anyone else not think it's strange that srf4real has Poodles.... they don't really strike me as surfer dude type dogs ; )
