PESO x4: Spring Flowers
It's been several months since I picked up the dslr but our magnolia tree is going bonkers this year so I wanted to get a couple of pics. While I was out there I saw a few other opportunities so went back in to get the macro lens. Magnolia flower: http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/1066/#peso Rhododendron bud: http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/1067/#peso Rose Hips (technically not a spring one): http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/1068/#peso Helleborus: http://gallery.multi.net.nz/photo/1069/#peso I spent a few minutes waiting for a bumblebee to visit this flower, which it did, but the photos didn't really come out well. This time I made a bit more use of the tools in Camera Raw while opening the files in Photoshop... very pleased with what it could do.

PESO: an insect
hi, i have been occupied generally with other things to take part in pdml meaningfully but i thought i'll share something nice that happened to the son, Adit. he wants to be a naturalist and have been photographing bugs and insects a lot in recent times. one of them, a photo of a less-than-1cm-long 'eggplant horned planthopper', has been nominated as observation of the day by iNaturalist, the citizen science project. the photo on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ovUXOgSnS/ he used ks1, DAL 55-300 and raynox dcr250 to take the photo, so it's not strictly OT ;) thanks for looking, subash -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: OT. Nicer photo in the paper
Thanks for posting that, Larry. Definitely an eye-catching image of two lovely young women. A pox upon the Air Canada employees who forced her to remove her hijab. Air Canada's response about having to see the passenger's entire face is nothing but a bullshit excuse for blatant profiling. -p On 8/26/2019 12:08 PM, l...@red4est.com wrote: This past is not about the content of the article, just the photo.
