John44
Ik vind je een kei!
Hans Bax replied
Ik word er verlegen van…
John44
Hans luister.. je bent een gooie Fot vakman ..Iik kan van je leren!
Jouw shots steken qua tecniek scherpte en kleur boven het middelmatige koren veld uit!
Dus ik heb je nu eens lekker ‘doorgelicht’
Alle shots bekeken en sommige spraken me niet zo aan .. maar dat is ook visa versa met wie dan ook!
Ik blijf zeuren ,JUIST omdat er veel ERG goed zijn.. vertel hoe en wat SVP ..ok?
Neem een pilsje van me
John
Hans Bax replied
Nou, vooruit dan maar: het is echt slechts een Canon Powershot S3 IS, meer kan ik er niet van maken. Er zit wel ‘supermacro’ op en ik heb oog voor detail, dat wel. Daarbij af en toe wat ‘overtolligs’ wegknippen en dan heb je een bepaald resultaat…. Maar ik vind het wel erg leuk dat je zo enthousiast bent!
Dankjewel!
Groeten,
Hans.
Yana
I have seen the other photo, is this an imposition?
Its cute!
Hans Bax replied
Thank you Yana. I don’t know exactly what you mean with ‘imposition’. It’s a cutout from a bigger picture, is that what you mean? (English is still difficult for me)
Yana
no I only meant was it two pictures overlapping each other
Hans Bax replied
No, it’s one picture, a cutout from a supermacro. The trees in the drops are standing really in the background.
