It appears to be a male, breeding Anhinga.

Self portrait with a Polaroid Land Camera!

I hadn't noticed at first but I guess all the ones I ended up picking were at the same angle. Hmm. Should've flipped one of them for variety. Oh well.

1.

2.

3. I like how the white blobs in the background sort of "frame" this shot:

Thanks for looking

Did you hand hold those shots? I still haven't figured out how to shoot insects, they move so darn fast.

 

[Shizelbs]

Some of you take some amazing pictures. Consider me jealous.

 

[Samgotit]

More bugs...

Yup. I never use the tripod when shooting bugs.

...and to the masters of bug photography here on head-fi, Mrvile and Samgotit, bravo once again! Your shots are always outstanding.

Here are two new close-up shots of the same artificial flower as in my previous posts, only this time with my D50 set up on a Manfrotto mini-tripod:

Here is one taken with a 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor @ f/5.6:

And here is one taken with an 18-55 II AF-S Zoom Nikkor DX lens @ 55mm @ f/13 (optimal aperture for this lens at the long end):

Of those two, which do you prefer? And which is sharper?

Not mine but still awesome.

Just took this one. I was inspired by it when I accidentally turned the light on really dim while taking my dog outside (The door is right behind the camera. I actually had to open it. If only I had enough money for a wide angle lens...). Anyway, I noticed a few things I'd like to change, the main ones being the brightness and the fact that the camera was a little crooked. I had to do a really long exposure. I have another version that's way too dark, but I feel that this one is a little too bright. I'll come back in a few nights with a better version. Meanwhile, please give me some criticism which I can consider for the next shot. Thanks.
