It's brilliant shot, Francis. Regards Jens Jens Bladt http://www.jensbladt.dk
-----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Francis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt: 28. december 2005 05:28 Til: [email protected] Emne: peso: Coils (A different kind of coils than in the book) To get this shot I used a technique that I read about in one of Tim Fitzharris's books. As soon as I found this guy I quickly dropped my Tilly hat over him, then got all set up and, when I was ready, quietly lifted the hat. and there he was exactly how and where I wanted him. This fellow was quite ripe to molt (as you can see from the fogging up of the scale that covers his eye) and though they tend to be extra fierce then (I guess they're nervous because they can't see any thing) he was very cooperative. note: the colors that come out of my scanner are quite unrelated to the colors on the photo I put into it so, though I spent about half a hour trying to fix them in PS, they aren't much like the original. http://www.photosynth.ca/photo/f/snake.html That was on Fuji 100 print film (while I was waiting for them slow pokes to send my next case of slide) in my P3n (sitting on my bean bag) with my late 2x Vivatar macro TC and M 50mm f2. What do you think? Cheers, Francis
