Description ...or an eye-catcher? We'll see.

Well, this is something different from me, out of my style, but I like these squares so much... so this is my very first attempt that I believe looks better in sq. Please leave me a critical feedback and links to another marvelous squares you like. Thank you!!


P.S. To be honest, I don't feel to be settled in any style yet, so this can't be out of my style lol!

I came across the same sort of webs the other day, after a fog had settled & left condensation on them. I haven't taken a good look at my photos yet, but I think this one definitely surpasses mine.

oh, thank you, but I'm still not sure about this one. Hmmm, water would certainly give it beautiful aspect. I'm looking forward to your look..

Well, for me definitely an eye catcher. I like it a lot.

Looks pretty abstract, but I like the composition and focus.

Thank you..

I found this on some rock and the webs were visible just from certain point of view (against the light). Unfortunately from a place where using a tripod was impossible. And to shoot at 70mm and 1/5s without a tripod is quite for nothing. You must choose between high ISO (1600 was enough, but the noise!) and composing with camera pushed to the rock. But at the end I'm quite happy about the result.

ummm... I would say not bad, considering circumstances

But your squares are very good! Why do you shoot only in 1:1? You just like it or is there any particular reason?

I'm a square-a-holic. *lol*

Don't know how it happened.
I just love squares. Always did. One day I started to crop my photos to square and haven't stopped ever since... It's hard to break a habit. *lol*

a square-a-holic... Well, I love even rectangles lol, but BW squares have something special to it, I can't say what exactly, just something, or at least I like them. And it seems they are also quite popular here...

Hmm... I don't know. I watch a lot of people who do squares also, because I like them. But I think in general, there are more rectangles.
Hey, but it doesn't really matter, as long as it looks good.

rdalpes In reply to mucek [2008-09-13 05:47:45 +0000 UTC]

anyway that's a pleasant picture to watch

i often shoot, and i have often the same question, how make it better, in that case the focus, and deep of field isn' t perfect, and oftne i don't know if a very good lens would have done beter or if it's a problem choice o f.number and speed

And sometime , i want to go back , to try again (at 20 or 22 when i'm on the computer )
have a good day

mucek In reply to rdalpes [2008-09-13 06:54:22 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad you like it..

I think this happens to everyone - you download photos from camera and see this or that could have been done better. So it's good to watch the photo in the eyefinder first, shoot, and then on the camera display as well. Because it's too late when you are watching it on the computer screen at home.

But anyway when I have a vision of some picture in my mind first, I often return to the place when there's better light, interesting sky, or with another lenses. Until the result matches my vision.

Have a good day too!
