Greg, this is so beautiful, it makes me want to get my camera out, and starting clicking away.... However, I know it takes more than the camera and the LENS. (macro 90MM right?) it's the eye and you got it!!!!!!!!
Artist Reply: Jane - this was actually shot with a telephoto because the lily was in the middle of the pond. Takes a very steady tripod.
It's not only the eye, but also knowing the limitations of your equipment and also its capabilities. If I use a lens long enough, I can see what it will see before I put it on the camera. I see the image before I shoot it. Of course that takes a few thousand practice shots - but then, everything is a parctice shot.
THIS I LOVE...EXCELLENT WORDS AND SHOOTING...LOVE THE CLARITY OF THE WATER AND THE SOFT BLUSH OF THE PETALS...ONLY YOU COULD SSE IT THIS WAY...EXCELLENT THOUGHT FOR THE DAY. WOW! WHAT A BLESSING THIS IS. I NEEDED THAT.
