Like yesterday’s HDR, this one smoothed out the light. The pond is covered in green vegetation, would have been nice to see the water.

Another HDR. This time the HDR process helped with detail.

HDR smoothed out the light from front to back. One shot taken alone would not have this perfect range of light. HDR combines multiple shots of the same subject at different stops of light (2 under exposed, 2 over exposed and one just in the middle).

This is in High Definition Range (HDR) and then adjusted with other software. I use HDR to get the best natural lighting.

Not everything needs be in focus. Nor does the background need to colourful.

It’s all in the details. Too much sharpening and the dust on the bee lights up.

The detail on caterpillars can be confusing. It was only when I got home that I realized it was looking at me.

Butterfly composition: focus on wings, focus on action, focus on eyes or a combination of the three key elements in the same shot.

I won’t argue that taking birds in flight takes practice. What’s hard is getting a good composition.

This is one of those lucky shots. I take many photos of bees, but seldom get one in flight.

This was a messy shot, I knew what I wanted (it’s what you see). In editing a number distractions had to be eliminated to get exactly what I wanted.

I do as little as possible in editing a shot. The important thing is to remain faithful to what I saw and why I took it.

Compose as you take a shot. Cropping and other tools in post processing can help improve composition but in my view a nicely composed shot begins before you take the photo.

This is one of the most detailed photos I have taken of this type of Butterfly. Down to the speckled eyes and long proboscis.

I found this photo odd for two reasons. It looks flat but in fact the yellow centre goes deep into the flower, you have to look to see it. Secondly, the stem comes out of nowhere. Still Iiked the shot well enough to post it.

Wonderfully coloured creatures, I hope to take more shots of various caterpillars.
