Macro Week #6 – Day 1: No Place I’d Rather Bee.
Quite happy with this shot. The only one in focus out of 13. Complimentary colours. Bee facing the right way for the composition to work (literally the hardest bit is waiting for it to bloody turn around!!).

Continued.
A couple more from the forest photoshoot with Paul Manns. Voluntary thing to get some experience with photoshoots and always happy to help start-up artists.

How I Work.
Image 1. The model is a photographer/Dj who asked me to take a landscape photo of him, backlit, in a forest, using his own lighting set up (2 remote flashguns either side). I did the best I could having not really been exposed to the world of photo shoots very much. Image 2. The model…

Lightroom Experiments: Sneak.
In this one I tried to make my own bokeh. The four spots on the red blood patch are actually adjustment brush points set to reduce saturation to 20% and increase exposure, with a very tiny amount of feathering. I tried to keep the size similar to the actual bokeh but they look a…

Day 5: Manly Flowers
Again no idea what flowers they are but the tree, which was pretty much next to the plant from the previous post, was covered in this blossom so couldn’t not take a photo. This one is actually turned upside down since the blossoms were hanging down, it makes it look more interesting without looking unnatural.…
