]]> Comment on Spider by Connie http://www.digapixblog.com/2008/09/29/spider/#comment-670 Connie Mon, 29 Sep 2008 13:17:29 +0000 http://www.digapixblog.com/2008/09/29/spider/#comment-670 Thank you James for your critique. I love shooting macro shots of spiders. It's funny because I am deathly afraid of spiders but I love being able to see things that our eyes can't see when shooting a macro of them. They really are very cool to see up close and personal. Thank you James for your critique. I love shooting macro shots of spiders.

This shot is indeed a “wall-hanger”! Printed on Hannemul(sp) fine art pearl paper it would pass for a fine art pastel drawing. Well done. With corrections! An outstanding example of motion blur.

It is a fascinating technique that I recommend to others. The combination of subject (dark on light), timing the panning to the motion; shooting manual with speed and aperture not necessarily the " camera correct" exposure; and pure luck dictates the result.

This old wheel turned to magic when the sun went down, it was a thrill to shoot. Data: 1/4 sec F5.6 iso 500 Tri pods are not allowed on the pier so I found a very steady post to lean on.
