I found almost all of these items in my own back yard...it was a pretty cool nature walk...and some very weird things grow in the woods behind my house.
Using the Macro application was interesting. I had the zoom all the way to the W for most of these pictures and my camera manual states that with this setting, I can shoot subjects at distances as close as 2 3/8" , which was about right but I think I got closer than that. However, I did try with the zoom all the way to the T. This setting was very blurry and I could not hold the camera steady enough for the picture to come out visibly. It is recommended with the T setting to use it about 11 7/8" away from the subject. That was too far to get the closeness of the picture that I wanted.

I just love this collage. The colors are soft and nature and, though from different subjects, blend well together. Great eye.
ReplyDeleteThis is really great! It is a very united collage, yet it has a lot of variety within the overlying theme. Great captures of texture and nice job switching up the perspective in a lot of them. I love how the mushrooms look like trees!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I had a lot of fun with this project. It was cool seeing all of the different objects I could actually photograph so closely.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I love all the different textures and tones.
ReplyDeleteGreat job. It amazing what you can find in your back yard to take photos of. I like the picture of the bumble bee.

Very detailed I liked it alot. The arrangement was well put also.
ReplyDeleteI can smell the outdoors looking at these shots, so neat the "woodsy" feel you made it have. How lucky are you to have all that neat stuff in your yard.
