@seahawker challenged me to take a photograph using the macro setting on my camera. Today, for my birthday, I received a gorillapod (Ta Andy) and set this up on the wall outside the cafe by the river where we had coffee. I love the colours in this, and the way further away is out of focus, I'm amazed at the detail too, to me it looks like a path through a lush forest, a whole new world opeened up to me by my gorillapod, thanks all who helped me decide on one in my recent discussion thread, am so impressed.;-D
I'm glad you're getting good use from your gorilla. I have a lot of trouble bending the legs properly. But then I haven't gotten the hang of using my tripod either.
beautiful colors and contrast of textures - great job with this! that's the beauty of macro - a whole new amazing world starts to open up and you never look at things the same! happy birthday!
@amandalYou're hard on your tripods then lol, find the pod is fine for my little camera. @catwoman2 The legs cvan be a bit nerve jangling, fortunately I have a little camera and impressed so far. @seahawker thank you, I see what you mean and sorry forgot to tag you on this, got my gorillapod for my birthday and really enjoyed trying it out on my day out, think I did pretty well with this one, and enjoyed the challenge this week, hope you enjoyed yours. @breigh A very basic one I think? Love it already;-) @sabanford Thank you Shirley. @psychographer I know the stuff you mean lol ;-)
@denidouble you've done a great job with the challenge! did I miss mine? last I saw, you were still thinking of one, and then my week got away from me and I didn't check as much... but I have enjoyed watching you try these new things!!
Nice photo btw!
