Photograph and Camera talk
-
Michael Runtz is a Carleton University professor in Ottawa who specializes in nature based courses. One of my favourite lectures was where he used filters to show what insects and wildlife see versus what we see. With flowers you see them completely differently and some plain looking flowers are absolutely gorgeous with the right filters and lighting.
It’s something I have been interested in and may pursue at some point. I love nature in general and often find those are the subjects I most like to photograph. With macro it’s fun to get those close up pictures of pollen that your normally don’t see unless you’re looking for it.
I think that the lenseball with nature could make some fantastic images as well.

I bought all 3 sizes and have only,occasionally,used 2 at a time.Haven’t found much use for the Mini one yet,and the only one that my assistant/wife can hold is the middle sized one,and she gets tired holding that one as they are surprisingly heavy. I bought the mounts/stands and have rarely used them. One thing you have to be careful of is if the sun hits the Lensball at a certain angle while someone is holding it,it gets really hot really quick. Had my wife wear a glove,so that I don’t have to pay attention to her skin tone when editing.

Really great. Love denim Macro photography,which I had never seen before Iron Heart. Keep at it. I think there might be an IH Macro Photography thread which I contributed to years ago. I’ll look around. @weftyarn I found it and tagged you. Maybe we can resurrect it. Called Macro shots of Iron Heart Gear.
Awesome!! Another thread I can go full spam mode on
Great shots there…Also, great lens ball work again, @Jett129

Long time no post… Was on a business trip for a few days. I love to take out the camera when switching trains and waiting by the platform. Theres something aesthetic about train stations and the people moving in them.
I wanted to travel light so I chose the 35mm 1.4 7Artisans over my “heavy” 23mm 1.4…

Great shot, James. I quite like it! I see what you did there. Having something blurred in the foreground is something I also do from time to time.
While I like the stand in the bottom right, that doesn't interfere with the subjects (only with the white background),
my eyes have a little bit of a problem with the red top right object interfering with the blue of the jeans.Did you shoot it from an angle purposely?
The only thing I would try is moving just a tad left and tilting the cam to the right so it aligns with the lines on the floor and looks perfectly perpendicular to the wall.
That should also do the trick to separate the red from the blue in the top right. -
I’m a big fan of reflective photography,also love the puddle reflection shot you did. Only/best way to learn is to take pictures,and you’ll see what work’s/doesn’t work and what is pleasing to your eyes. Over time you’ll develop a style of photography that’s unique to you. Keep at it.
