Re: PESO - Sunflower II

[Mark C]

Thanks Ann!

The exhibit is still up - no sales last I checked. Its the rare bird who 
gets rich off art exhibits in Three Rivers, Michigan... But I'm all set 
with new inventory for my December sales.

Re: PESO - Sunflower II

Thanks PJ. The irony is that this sunflower is only about 1.5 inches in 
diameter - just a weedy sprig struggling in  the compost under the bird 
feeder. So in that sense - it falls a bit short of being the big 
glorious sunflowers that everyone loves.


Whenever I try growing the big ones some critter eats the flowers, 
usually before they fully open. Its always at night so its probably a 
raccoon.

Re: PESO - Sunflower II

[Mark C]

Thanks, Dan - I like them both and can envision them together as a pair.

I had hoped to catch the bud in the first image before any of the petals 
popped, so the slight imperfection of a couple petals breaking free is a 
little off from my plan.  I have a couple of other potential subjects 
that I may be able to catch at the right moment.


Plants are by no means fast moving but a day or even half a day can mean 
the difference between the subject envisioned and the subject on hand.

twice a year - never in a situation to get photos.

Studio macro. Pentax K1, DFA 100mm macro, pixel shift mode, 46 stacked

This was more difficult to stack and needed more touching up due to the
much greater distance form front to back.

Comments welcome.

Not what Dan said. I prefer this one. Good job - I'm a big fan of your

Re: PESO - Pegasus

[Marnie (aka Doe)]

Well, sometimes google is your friend.

I came across another photo of it on the net.

Taken by a realtor, she claims it is a wind vane (moves around). Could 
be. I don't remember it moving, but it may not have been a windy day. I 
also don't remember a restaurant, if there was one, it was not right 
next to it.

Re: PESO - Pegasus

[Marnie (aka Doe)]

See Dan's post. The one package he didn't open, out of all the packages, 
had wings on it (also gave him the idea for the sail). And at the end of 
the movie he delivers that package and there are wings at the ranch. And 
there is a hint that she will be someone he sees again.

Funny, I've read just the opposite — of success using a DIY filter
inserted between a teleconverter and the lens it's attached to.

I'll have to do some more digging.

Now that I think about it more, it probably is for jumping through. 
Smallish horse or pony. Then you have to get the picture on the fly. I

Taken 2012 on a back road on the way back from Napa to home.

I spotted this driving and pulled off to take it. It reminded me of
one of my favorite films "Castaway" (Tom Hanks).

It was in the front "yard" (field) of a ranch. A barn was off to the
right. It took me a minute or two to get what it was for. But, on
second thought, it was pretty obvious.

Not a particularly good shot, I just thought it was an interesting
roadside curiosity.

Maybe a pony? Although I would think the wings would be too big for it.

Its a very nice steel sculpture - worth pulling over to get a photo. Is
it really big enough for a horse to jump through?

I imagine they want a horse to step through. Not jump. Front legs in 
front of circle, back legs in back of the circle. Stand still, so it 
looks like it has wings. I don't know if a horse can do that, but 
presumably the people doing it know what they are doing (or not -- maybe 
it doesn't work). I think it would definitely be for photographs.


It's big enough around for a horse. You get idea of its size by the 
fence behind it, even though it is further back. It was large.
