Cool Pics by a Sf member

Do you sit and wait for those photos to come together or is it just luck? I just don't notice things like that. I've never slowed down enough to notice. :(

Actually they are all around. Once you get into it you see them everywhere :D
Of course I have a few fav spots, for the dragonflies for example.
Do you mean any pictures in particular ?
 
Just if you know its gonna be a full moon and a foggy night, so you plan to take pics. Or are you walking by the window, see the moon against a foggy background, go get the camera?

I don't do nights though :p

Actually, I plan most of my 'shoots'. After work I just go to one or some of my spots and see what's there. Sometimes I'll go find some new territory :)
I always take note of the weather of course in my decisions where to go. The foggy images for example, I saw it was particularly foggy, got in the car in drove to the spot I took the images. I knew the surroundings there, but there was some luck involved of course..

So.. I don't know.. a little bit of everything I suppose.
 


that is brilliant!!

can i steal it please?

I use a Nikon Coolpix 8700.. an 'older' compact digital camera really.
So no extra lenses, only the fixed one ;)

- 8 mp
- 8x optical zoom
- 3 cm macro focus range
I never use a tripod, not much use with insects anyway.
Don't shoot at night either.. as my interest mainly lies with insects and other small critters :)

Non-sequitur. I just wanted to use this emoticon.:D

I still think you are a tiny guy. Smaller then the bugs. Only way you could have taken those shots.:D
