p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Pleased To Eat You


Err, I mean pleased to meet you.

This was a character I found on the outside stairs of our hotel in Corsica when I was taking luggage to our car before departing to the airport. I put it on a potted shrub at the bottom of the stairs.

It was a bright, sunny morning and I hoped to get daylight images, although it was in some shadow at that stage. All of them showed distinct motion blur so I used flash. These are the two portraits, other images to follow.

EM-1, Kiron 105mm, probably f16, TTL flash, hand-held. Images cropped for composition.

2nd one for me, too.

Although the "surprised" look in the first one is also nice.

Thanks, Morris.

The default in my, recently reinstalled, sharpening software was not appropriate. I switch off all in-camera adjustments and rely on post-processing. I have posted a reworked version.

Thanks, also, everyone else for your comments.

Thanks, Brian.

All things being equal, I prefer a three-quarters angle most times.

I have some lower magnification, full insect images to process and upload.
