What do you think of the light on these 4 pics? This is a new diffusion material I discovered today, three layers of it.
I found that the bee, I was actually too far away using ETTL for it to be what I wanted, so I had to increase the exposure in LR, and then add some NR to disguise the resultant noise. Hand held, manual focus - didn't manage the bee in the right place, but did get sharp focus on the top petal of a dead nettle flower!
I found some eggs underneath a brick - I assume from a slug, and they were a tiny bit reflective I suppose:
This is a lump of old newspaper which was originally stuffed into a gap down the side of the shed door frame. It has since fallen out and in it's dried state, now houses a small spider. WB adjusted to show the greyness of the paper (looked brown, thanks Venus) via the eyedropper in LR:
Finally, what was going to be a photo of my daughter's iris but as she looked into the camera at three inches distance, the fits of giggling took over and as I pressed the shutter, so she giggled in perfect timing, and we ended up with her eye closed (but even so, I can tell she was in a laughing mood just by the way the skin looks!)
Gotta say, hand held, the sharpness of this Venus lens continues to astound me at times.
I think this new material has potential perhaps...
WDYT?
