Guys, I see some of you putting loud watermarks on your low resolution images. Not only it is useless, but it also spoils the image. It takes away the focus from the image.

Since you are not posting the original, nobody can really steal it and claim as their own. Besides, what is the point in stealing low resolution images.

@samurai - you are damn right. Never thought of that.
I have watermarked the original image and then resized it to post here.

hkanitkar, Nice pics! But the central composition is a bit boring (for me!).

rjstyles69 · 24th August 2007, 22:38

Shot this at home today. Was cleaning my camera and there was power cut. Inverter dint kick in and was too lazy to check what happened. The candle was my last resort.

Tried a few shots on the candle.

ISO went a little high in the 2nd picture and the end result noise.

Ok, this could be fun. Same composition, use ISO200 or below, use a tripod. Take different shots by spotmetering on different parts of the candle and flame.

Spot Metering (Spot Meter): Digital / 35mm / Medium Format! (if you already don't know)

Welcome!

Ye, Its always tough to take close ups of insects. I have been trying hard, but not hard enough I guess. Will have to put in more effort.
