Out Of The Blue - Theme: Fill The Frame

2008.01.30





These are for Lindy's theme. The flowers are the same as the Blue Fairy post earlier this month. I took the raindrops on Sunday during a break in one of the many storms we've been having.

Soooooo...Sorry to drop yestertday's post on you out of the blue like that. It just kind of boiled up last night and I let it out. Like the teapot, I guess, I needed to let off a little steam. I almost deleted the post after I posted it but decided to let it stand.

I am so NOT perfect. But I'm okay with you knowing that.

LostAspen Wow, these are awesome macros! The first one is my favorite.

MHJphotos The good thing is, none of us here are perfect! =)

However, these shots are phenomenal! I've said it before ... WOW that lens is sharp! Such amazing fine detail. #2 has a very 3D quality to it.

My favorites though are your two raindrop shots. I'd really like to know exactly how you did these. They're absolutely gorgeous, and I saved #4. The lighting, the vibrancy, just fantastic!

P.S. Since I wasn't allowed to comment on yesterday's post, all I will say is BEAUTIFUL!

rolpa Intense and beautiful photos. The blue-gold contrast is gorgeous and the drops are amazing! Is f/40 (according to exif) right on #3?

Janiee Gosh...I am surprised because these are so wonderful!!!

Janiee · 2008-01-30: 00:04
vollenda Yes, F40 is right. 1/2 sec @ F40. It was with my 70-180 macro lens. :)

Thanks everyone!

focussed A.M.A.Z.I.N.G
Thats all Ill say!

oh and..sounds like your feeling a little better.....angry outbursts are sometimes very necessary ;)
focussed · 2008-01-30: 00:46
kangshung These are exquisite Lisa! If I had to pick favourites they would be #2 and 5. That 70-180 lens of yours is a killer. I'm glad you're feeling better - was feeling a bit concerned yesterday.
kangshung · 2008-01-30: 01:56
????? This is really the best side of blue. #4 is my favorite, it's like pearls. And I'm very enlightened to hear, that I'm not the only not-perfect woman on the Earth... ;)

DancingDolphin · 2008-01-30: 07:25
etodd80 Wow, that second shot is really amazing! I love how it is coming towards you and your dof makes it very 3D.
etodd80 · 2008-01-30: 08:06
jackie These are amazing! I didn't even know what it was at first. I like that. It made me think and keep going down the pix until I could see it. Patty said you add spice. Now we just need to give you a name. Sometimes - Angry Spice, sometimes - Nutty Spice. my pick for you would be Smarty Spice. : -)
jackie · 2008-01-30: 08:23

lexlevans #3 is spectacular!! i really really love the color and the shimmer of it. great set of blues - such a pretty color! and i'm glad you kept up yesterday's post too - because i definitely have those days and i feel like i want to post something about it but not sure how people would react - so now i see that other people feel the same and that it IS okay because everyone here is so supportive and understanding :-)

Genevieve this is an outstanding series!!!! i love the all
Genevieve · 2008-02-01: 21:40
chipotle i write poetry for myself to sort out my feelings. it's very cathartic to me. and i do it every now and then with photography, but not to the same degree because, for me, photography is largely about making sense of the world about me.

any sort of creative vehicle that you use, though, to sift through your feelings is a gift. regardless of whether the feelings are red or blue.
chipotle · 2008-02-02: 17:00
bolder WOW!

next level kinda stuff... you really outdid yourself!!

AGAIN!!!

#2 is a fave
