That is a very nice moon Wendy

The road to nowhere, actually to Colorado Springs.

The R5 has good low light noise performance anyway. I like the 4 screen preview in Topaz DenoiseAI which allows you adjust for the best results quickly

I especially like the first one. You can see the eyes. You also have action with the moving web, good job.

I love my r5.

These are yellow black which usually means danger Will Robinson danger. Are they very poisonous? We have black widows here that can make you very sick but usually does not result in death.

The double color ones are very nice. Good shot. We have them here, they are pretty tasty when ripe but you have to make sure you get every little quill out.

I like the use of focus and out of focus areas. Very nice.

The poppies are awesome.

Loved the dappled light and the opening of the poppy. Very nice Jasenka

Very nice. Love the soft dark look.

Very nice. I like it.

Nice capture.. They looked like bees at first. I don’t remember every seeing yellow spiders in person. I think I would have headed back to the bin with a macro lens for a super up close and personal.

The last time I tried to shoot buffalo up in Denver and did not get any noteworthy shots. they simply would not pose for me lots of butt and shadows. Then they got so close you could embrace them. I went with a group so I did not dare to get out of my truck because everyone had a camera and…[Read more]

This one had less clouds and though I see the flaws it is not too bad either. You are right, some of my friends thought the first one was great.

Thanks Tersha. I think the struggle will make me be better prepared next time. Nothing like experience to help you do better.

Thanks Federico.
