Wow - looks like a better turnout yesterday. Thank goodness.
Don - I have to admit that I have to plead guilty to logging in but not posting. But that's me of course - always been a listener rather than a talker. (I have difficulty verbalizing my thoughts/feelings.) The starbursts on the lights appeared in the raw files, much to my surprise! I like your three images. The macro I appreciate because my attempts at macros have not been too good. I now really only have one lens - a Sony 24-240 zoom. Not very sharp, and cannot do macros or birds/wild animals too well. Also, I don't use my cellphone camera much.
Dave - Thanks for your thoughtful comments. Your succulent image is great, as usual. I think that our feelings on composition tend to coincide!
Lorell - Thanks for the comments. The "Uber" comment gives me an idea for the title! Well done on that image - it certainly is striking!
Peter - Neat mistletoe image. And, as always, you are able to follow up with so much interesting/technical information on your world!
Rich - Many thanks. Something was worrying me about the reflections in that shot, and you have just nailed it. I'll redo the left side. Nice shots of tempestuous waters there.
Don - Another really impressive macro shot of a butterfly.
Peter - Talking of butterflies, here's another good example. At the first camera club I joined we had a butterfly expert, and it was fascinating to hear what he had to say. Some of them live only between certain altitudes and such like.
Natalie - It is really terrible what that idiot Russian is doing to the Ukraine - and the rest of the world too for that matter. Here's hoping it will stop soon.
regards - Pete
