Feb Macro Outing Photos

[otc]

Super nice ....

thks, simon. Its out of position, hence composition is out cos of the wind.

I faced the same problem too.
Some of the guys managed to capture great pics.

Yes, Ben this was taken with monopod but wind caused it to move out of the area of intended composition. Hence cropped to compose as well. Very low keeper rate when there is wind. The younger macro shooters would do well handheld, with their stronger arms, with more trigger on shutter and better chances of keeper shots.

Hey, did you see you and your sigma 180 tat day. AWOL

u spend the whole morning shooting and after reviewing / processing all, decided that only 1 was a keeper, and u call that "low expectation"? :sweat:
