    Thanks Kookylane, glad you liked the DOF. I’d wondered whether I should’ve gone with a higher F setting, and complete focus, but liked this effect :)

  • timpollock

    timpollock

    I love the colour and detail. Well worth the investment in the macro lense. What camera and lense did you use?

  • Damian

    Damian

    Thanks Tim. I’m using a Nikon D70, and the macro I have is a Tamron SP AF 90mm F/2.8, and I’ve been very happy with it. I hadn’t expected the extra sharpness of the images compared to the kit lens.

    The veins look scary. The green is so intense. Great photo.

  • Damian

    Damian

    Thanks naomik, scary was partly what I felt as well.
    I felt like it was something at a distance from me, and had stretched an arm in my direction, and was straining to get to me with spindly fingers. That thought had inspired the title :)

    the veins here are great, more Dof would have been nice if possible

    Thanks DawsonImages, and I agree, I would’ve liked to carry that sharper focus across a broader area on the right. I must admit, I underestimated the angle I was shooting across.

    Ah, I love macro shots, and this is a beautiful example of a really nice one! I like how the focus is a bit to the right and the rest is blurred out. And of course the effect from the sun shining through it is great!

    Thanks Eenuh, I’m happy you like the result here! The sun through the leaves was just too tempting to leave alone :)
