Day 1: Baselineby EstimatedEyesComment by hajeka: Nice green colors and background. Can't help you with the name of this plant. The sunlight gives a special effect to this, but it takes a lot of attention. |

Day 1: Baselineby EstimatedEyesComment by boyd2000: Beautiful plant. Some sort of succulent maybe? I like how the focus tapers off the further from the center you get. Nice lighting and coloring. |

Day 1: Baselineby EstimatedEyesComment by Arcanist: Great first day and great idea. At the end of the month, you should take all that you have learned, return to this plant with tripod, extender tubes, reflectors and a reversed lens macro ring and get really close up. I would have thought those were spider legs without the wide angle of reference. |

Day 1: Baselineby EstimatedEyesComment by fixedintime: An interesting plant. You did a good job of holding the camera steady for a macro of this size. That I think will be your real test - how steady you can hold it, what shutter speed you can use for the handhelds, how to hold the camera steady for these shots. The trade off between shutter speed and DOF if a little more difficult as even with a tripod there are time where you won't want great DOF for the shot you are taking. |

Day 1: Baselineby EstimatedEyesComment by kteach: Neat plant... I like how the tips are a different color. The lighting looks like it wasn't really on your side with this one since you have that darker section in the middle, but I do like the backlighting which helps to bring out the fresh green colors. I don't have any fancy reflectors, but I have used a sheet of aluminum foil wrapped around something to help reflect light back on my subject sometimes. Maybe something like that would help to brighten up that middle spot here? Great start to the challenge.. looking forward to more! :) |
