Froggie Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 (edited) It's an exceedingly nice day out so I took a chance to head outside after I got home this afternoon. I spent a few minutes crawling around the grass in my backyard looking for critters. As it’s really just warming up here, so I didn’t find much. Thought I'd share these three regardless: Ladybug: Itty-Bitty Spider: All shots were 1:1 and the Ladybug was slightly cropped further. I realise the second one is a bit out of focus but er.. it was windy -01- Edited April 21, 2006 by Froggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGr8Blade Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 AMAZING! WONDERFUL! SO CLEAR! WOWSERS! Look out National Geographic...Sean is coming LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vapor Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 So now that spring has sprung, I see you have found even more stuff that us camera challenged people can't compete with. Thanks alot :boom: . Seriously though great shots :thumbs: . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGr8Blade Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 My competitive nature came out and I took a picture of a ladybug too. I am hoping I will not put Sean to shame. My camera is an antique comparing it too the digital cameras of today, keep that in mind... My ladybug picture Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vapor Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 C'mon Blade. Give the poor guy a chance to compete. -roll- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGr8Blade Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 I will take it that you think my macro photography is actually better than Seans. Thank you for your vote! LMAO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggie Posted April 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 I will take it that you think my macro photography is actually better than Seans. Definitely much better! I actually feel a bit unworthy to be posting on the same forum as you, given your amazing prowess. I went ahead and smashed my camera and lenses into little bits of plastic, metal and glass. It’s the only way I can feel any good about myself! :cry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggie Posted April 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 Here, just stepped out for a minute and took a quick shot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGr8Blade Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 What kind of camera is it? It takes "EXCEPTIONAL"ly blurry pictures. (just kidding LOL!) I gotta have one. It is truly amazing! Do you take pictures for a living? If not, you should! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molino Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 Very nice shots Sean! I'll have to try some macro photography this summer. That is one ugly looking bug in the last photo :eh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggie Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 What kind of camera is it? My camera is a Nikon D50, entry-level DSLR. The quality of my work, outside of aquatics, really isn’t that great. If you look at any decent photographer, my stuff gets blown away. I have a long-long way to go.

TheGr8Blade Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 It is amazing, great picture quality. You should consider a job in photography, good eye.

Froggie Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 It is amazing, great picture quality. You should consider a job in photography, good eye. Well if there really were any jobs other then wedding or portrait photography, and it paid reasonably, maybe I'd consider it. Until then, er.. I take pictures of peoples fish for the occasional :beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallisneria Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Man, that last one is a creepy looking bug. Although I like how it has furry hair,lol What kind of bug is it? Nice shots Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
