I went out yesterday to take shots of roses but it was too windy- These grass plumes were blowing in the wind-So I took several shots w/ slow shutter-speed.I still didn't get the effect I wanted- so I turned the camera to the right as I snapped. I liked the effect so I put a pale yellow filter on it to further soften the effect.
Denise, when I go to do macro and it's windy, I turn the camera the shutter priority and go 1/8 or 1/15 and let the vegetation do the work for me. You'd be surprised at some of the results.
Well composed with an ethereal mood, what's not to like?
I like it, too but I am not fond of the brighter green in the bottom left corner - It tends to pull my eye away. Any way you can tone that bit down just a bit might make for a more "serene" overall image.
Good work!
Fabs, what a good idea about slowing down the shutter and letting the plant do the moving. Now why have I never thought of that??? :eek::confused::eek:
