Experimenting.

I am not an expert at dandylion photography but it keeps me out of mischief.

I am just using a panel light, might try flash tomorrow.

A broken branch. Feedback appreciated.

Centrefold. Forgot to edit.

Re: Experimenting.

One of my favorite photos is a bit of thistledown caught on the spikes of a bull thistle leaf. There are a few cobwebs, even finer than the down on the edges of the frame.

Nicely done series!

Speaking from experience, shots like this are harder than they look, aren't they?

Re: Experimenting.

Looks more like experiments with brutal level of any kind of digital noise. That's IMO not the good way how to experiment.

I tried to find some similar theme which i experimented too...

Good Grief.  Your blotch doesn't in any way compare to the OP's photos.   What's your point?

The point is gone in case of that attitude.

Re: Experimenting.

Weird, but i like it and the colours, I'm not sure where focus was meant to be (top right droplet?)
