    These are both very nice - have a stained glass quality to them.clap.gifclap

    I guess I prefer the first. The bright colors in the 'frame' of the second distract me from the main subjet.

    THe edges of the flower are a bit artifical looking tho.

    I've refined the look. I think this works better. What do you think?

    This is very nice. I don't usually like border/frames, but it really works here..

    I think it will do nicely in the competition. Even if it doesn't, I think it's a winner.

    For me it is an easy decision...this number one by a mile...it is sooo much stronger graphically. I love B&W with isolated colour.

    Today, July 04, 2006, 8:19:20 PM Does this image AT ALL fit the Blur concept? I am working on others, but kinda liked this a little bit. Been wracking my brain to figure out how to create a blur, yet everything be in focus!!! Laughing.gif

    Do you have Photoshop? ...if you do check out under filter tab Filter...Blur...Radial Blur. Or a pull zoom would be an interesting effect, all would be sharp...I think ...but blurry. There is a couple of pull zoom exposure pictures on this board...have fun!

    Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it. Have to admit tho...I guess I am old school

    Hi "Wagon Wheel"

    I to have just bought my first digital camera last week...I was waiting to get all that I wanted in a digital before making the leap. At th3e moment I am working on a book project with a little over half done...first half of the book, 645 chrome...the rest will be on the D5. What I am finding is the huge amount of work connected to the digital after the shoot. With Transp. you just pick them up from the lab sort and file...done

    Some how I have to stream line the post production...having to bring all the shots up on the screen then file away sounds simple...try from 100 frames a day...plus shooting...I never have any time any more! ...ooo ya also need to burn a CD for off site storage...ugh!

    Back to your project...yes photoshop can work wonders but there is nothing more satisfying than incamera magic...if you have a Zoom try a pull focus...that might just be the ticket.

    Does this fit the catagory any better?

    i personally like this one much more although it falls short on composition.
    the angle doesnt really work for me & background is distracting.

    i think the same idea w/ simpler setting & good framing will turn out great thumb.gif
