Wow what beautiful, vivid pictures. THanks I really enjoyed seeing them.
For the Macros, I’m shooting in only late afternoon shade or clouds when there is no direct sun and little to no wind. Without these conditions i don’t even bother trying unless the subject is fixed, thus no chance of movement. All shot at ISO 200 (the lowest native possible for the camera) and at mid-to-very stopped down appertures. This requires exposures that are way to long to hand-hold, so tripod with VR turned “off” on the 105mm 2.8 Micor Nikkor. Manual focus only. Also use either cable release or timed delay mode with the “exposure delay mode” set to “on” (its in the custom shootings settings menu). The exposure delay mode raises the mirror, then delays a couple seconds before the shutter is released, in order to mitigate vibration that is caused by the mirror snapping up. No filters used. I try to pay attention to the background, cause it will make or break the pic. Also using “live view” mode to set the composition and zoom in (in live view) to set the focus before exposing. I was using Manual shooting mode but just switched to trying apperture priority, and it’s easier this way.
Wow, lovely pictures. I especially love the hot coals pic…the “glow” is fascinating. I think you people are turning me into a firebug, what with this pic and Carole’s smoke/fire pics…
