Hi guys. This is my first bunch of pictures here. Do feel free for any constructive criticism.

@MindSpeeds: Nice pics, one suggestion with that lizard shot, it would've been better if you'd reached down to its level and clicked.

MindSpeeDs · 18th February 2010, 15:37

This is the lowest and closest (the 17-40 lens was on at that time) that I could manage.

@Mindspeeds :
Looks like the pictures are the results of a DSLR and a very steady hand.
Great sharpness in the lizard shot, just a better comopsition would have worked wonders IMO...

EDIT: Preetam: That is one heck of a shot! Awesome work man.

Since, the current theme seems to be flowers and bees, here is one from me. Bee in flight

TG,

I am a great fan of your B&W portraits. This is one my favorites. It evokes a feeling that can't be expressed in words. Thank you for making this shot

.

clevermax · 18th February 2010, 17:29

TG, that's a wonderful picture. As Hw said, it evokes some feelings. How do you get to shoot such short lived but pleasant moments!

mobike008 · 18th February 2010, 17:34

Same flower, but a different one though

Really like this one, that hint of blue in the back I just love that contrast.

Nice one...! The timing is perfect.

preetam_KORG · 18th February 2010, 17:53

@HW : Thank you brother! It seems that I just go on and change the theme everytime my posts :P

@TG : That is a great shot! Beautiful composition and I love the way the pigeons are flying away, some with the wings blurred and some just perfect. Great capture! Only the pillar in the middle is causing some obstruction, otherwise its just picture perfect!
