Thanks Yongcheng, I am well aware thatthe group photos are published and can I request you to either take them out or clone my face out of the pictures :blah: :embrass:.

HotSpots, really liked your second shot of the dragonfly series. I realised that the background forms a visible 'A' shaped and your DF falls in between. Works for me.

 

[HotSpots]

why all of you have the damselfly and I didn't see it??!! :cry:

Thanks for the compliments, nolongerloner. I like your last shot...its pin sharp and the dark background brings out the bee and the flower nicely. :thumbsup:

 

[Will03]

See whether THIS will help.

Will03, I got worst shots than yours (as in totally OOF), its just that I didn't published them. I think we must follow yongcheng and HotSpots, to bring our tripod along next time. Though cumbersome, but at least we wont be asking ourselves later in front of our monitor.... 'if only I had brought the damn tripod... '

Very productive outing. Good luck on the next one!
See whether THIS will help.

Great article. Thanks Sgt Pep.

 

[Will03]

hahaha ! ya... maybe I should really bring a tripod.... hope that we achieve better results next time !

 

[HotSpots]

will03, I like your pic 025a...the one with the little grasshopper perched on the lotus leaf...very comical. Only if you can go a bit closer for a tighter crop. :thumbsup:

 

[y0ngcheng]

all bring your tripod @ next outing! mai tu liaoOo! :devil:
