all good shots. thx for sharing

Well done, Alex.

My comment: OOF on the wings of the butt and too much USM to the pic especially on the fly. It looks like a robot to me rather than a nature subject.

Just my two cents.

Thanks for noticing

OOF on the wings, yes, can't be helped, already F22 will try to go smaller this saturday.

Too much USM? I don't think so, when there is too much USM there will be a white lines on the edges. My lens too sharp for you?

Ya may be, now i know why NW75 complain about a sharp lens hahaha

think a smaller f-stop wont help here but align ur cam slightly to the left would. just 1 deg will do hahaha

oh you are talking about #1, yes I will try to keep that in mind this saturday.
if you want to join me I will be there from 12:10 pm to around 12:50 pm every saturday. My daughter has classes at rivervale mall until 1pm so I have time to kill.

ortega nice shots but agree that the fly looks a bit oversharpen. And watch out for highlights on the leaf in the Cycad Blue shot.

thanks, highlights on the cycad blue shot are actually sunlight. the cycd blus was actually in the shade.

Maybe I'll post an unprocessed fly.
