This is what most photographers would consider very bad example of bokeh.

This nextone was only edited in DPP andis for humor purposes only! LET GO OF MY BEAK!










Sorry so many! it just felt great to get out of the house today when it was ONLY 90 degrees out instead of 110! Plus I am trying out some new post-processing techniques. Let me know if you like any of them. Some work for me and some ...not so much!

Wow Denise, your shots are all awesome - so sharp and vibrant. Your dragon fly shots are really good - great light. Did you use your 100mm Macro for those?


Well you've inspired me.....Here's my first submission on this site! Hope it works, not sure I uploaded correctly.


C&C welcome.

Thanks, Damian! Actually, for those I used my 100-400mm lens.


Your shot is really, really good! These are so hard to catch in flight! Sometimes I think I must look like a real idiot trying to track them up, down, left, right!
