Then and Now

July 3rd, 2012
We've done this a few times but once again I'd love to see two shots of yours of the same or a similar subject with a considerable time span in between to see your improvements. I'll start with these two: 14 July 2011 and 1 July 2012 Same flower separated by many lessons from many of you.

I saw the paint dancer photos and wanted to try it. this was my first attempt of it on March 25th 2012



This is my latest attempt at it. I definitely have improved since my first one. I have sold a bunch of prints and look forward to creating many more.

Here is the now photo taken on May 23rd

Just about a year apart. 7/1/2011:



6/24/2012:



Different species of dragonfly, but both taken while riding a paddleboat on Crystal Lake, and in fact not more than 15 yards apart.

Not only do I have a bit more zoom now, I have learned to stalk birds and insects.

@tigerdreamer Quite an improvement!

I'm loving these images! I've got to go back through my work to see if I have anything similar.

@pschtyckque Thank You Chris. It was funny to come home to this as I was loading todays photo. But this dam and I are intimately acquainted.
July 3rd, 2012
@tigerdreamer That's a good dam photo! ;-)

@northy The first one is a nice photo but the second one is more artistic to me. Nice.
July 3rd, 2012
@cheyrebecca Great eyes. The second one is so soft and intense. Great year!
July 3rd, 2012
@jsilver Wow. Great improvement and congrats on the sales!
July 3rd, 2012
@dmariewms Nice improvement. Zoom helps but the stalking is what it takes.
July 3rd, 2012
@jannkc Both flowers are gorgeous, such a shade, dn't have that around here.
July 3rd, 2012
@tigerdreamer Nice, I like the first one but the second one shows alot of setting thought.
July 3rd, 2012
@webfoot Great improvement from snapshot to Artistic Photograph. Be proud!
July 3rd, 2012
@swilde Nice change. Fun to see how thinking about all you have learned can create a work of art.
July 3rd, 2012
@kbradbury I could see both on the wall- Nice work.
July 3rd, 2012
@orangecrush I believe you did, but it is easy to forget with this community.
@jannkc Thank you Jann

@jannkc Very interesting thread!

Here's my first flower shot for my first day in 365. I'm tempted to pull my hair everytime I see this photo. :-)



And here's my 418th photo, I think I've improved so much over time, at least on flower shots. :-)
