Too much good stuff here .....
fitshaced : The kayaker soon to be dwarfed by the bridge . Nice reflection off the water . Taken from another kayak with a long lens? But wait…. There’s more !!!
Is that a tiny Sydney Opera House in the background? Hopefully , Reynolds’ The Sands of Time was on the card when this picture was shot.
JoeRito : Yes … those trains sure grow fast! A fine job composing ,I like the symmetry of the rails v. the asymmetry of the trees/signals .
Pmxexperience : Circuit boards are fascinating things to explore and shoot . You’ve done a nice job dealing with a narrow depth of field . I might have shifted position to center the chip (Microsoft … the horror!) between the 2 capacitors . Hand held , natural light with the 50 in your sig..?
Alexander of Oz : Isn’t it great all the stuff you accidentally find when bug hunting? You’ve got a nasty looking spider , and aphid heading for the horizon (it’s DOF blur but we can imagine it’s motion blur from his fleeing as fast as he can), plus a hairy flower . Is that another aphid in the top right? Nice Job !
Keleko : You’ve captured an image that I’ve attempted several times but with little success . I’m jealous!!! I like the way the spider is framed in white . Did you use any kind of fill light to accentuate the dew?
themumu : Gotta like little ducks . These look to be maybe a week or two past being fuzzballs. The reeds suggest a shoreline. Did you use a long lens to capture them at rest or were these just really used to people?
jodelli : Tiny boat …. Big city . Nicely composed , the red of the kayak pops out of what is a pretty monochromatic shot .
salacious : Small city …. Little dog …. Tiny people … great sky …… wide shot . Lots of stuff going on here . So , how’d you get it so wide ? Stitched , cropped , in-camera magic ?
acearchie : Nice . Tiny moon over a big piece of planet . Was this the last of a sunset , or was it one of those rare bursts of light that sometimes happens just after the sun sets ? Did you accentuate the vignetting in post or is this pretty much what happened?
butch10x : 91 cents (assuming US currency) , a pittance .
I like the way the coins blur out a the edges . Depth of field or done in post ? Nice nondescript background , just fades away .Would you have been able to achieve the same effect if the top 16 cents were in focus?
AlexH : Interesting sunset but , hey , where’s the tiny ? Tiny seeds on the grass ? Tiny bit of damage to the retina from shooting into the sun? Gotta be something real small in there somewhere .
Indydenny : Christmas already ? Well, soon enough . Was the train running when the picture was taken , there’s a touch of blur in the wheels .
LongSticks : C’mon … you can’t fool me . That poor lady’s average size and you’re a giant ! Does SHE know you posted her as TINY ? Might be sleeping on the couch for this one .
fireman32: You’ve gotta like taking bumblebee shots . Probably about the most cooperative flying bug there is . He’s a bit out of focus in the back , motion or a large aperture?
Apple Fanboy : Another cooperative bug . Nice reflections off its shell , and a nice , plain background . Taken with the 18-55?
Roadbloc : Just some comments , not judging this . Maybe better centering ?
Also , maybe changing the hand position some so the left part of the figure’s cape doesn’t get lost in the beckground . The object itself is nice and clear though . Did you REALLY use 3 – 600EX’s ? Enough….back in the corner.
Leighonigar : Wow . Always thought butterflies came from cocoons . Shows how much I know . This image is proof that a good image isn’t totally dependent on having a gazillion dollars in gear . Even the little hair things on the eggs are definable . Nice job , especially considering its hand held-available light .
Team Timm : I have friends who have one of these and it never sits still . Yours does , you're lucky . The dog is nice and sharp , and the background isn't . I really like the light disks in the background . Christmas lights?There is , however , something strange to me about the dog's eyes , maybe flash reflection?
So , The winners are:
1st: Leighonigar
2nd: Alexander of Oz
3rd: tie : butch10x and acearchie
Leighonigar ..... you're up
