an obliging model by helenhall

an obliging model

although I had amazing fun again with the macro setting today, and would love to show the results, the shot I have chosen to go with comes from a session I had with a most obliging heron today, pruning himself or herself on the weir and not in the least bit bothered by the attention I was giving with my presence and my lens.

Stunning detail. glad you posted thus, but would love to see your macro efforts. Maybe you could consider an Ace mambersjip and have more than one album. Fav

Great close up and an interesting angle

Fabulous, intimate image with lots of textural details to the feathers. Just lighten it and increase the contrast a tad to make this a spectacular image! Well done!

@daisyditch @fotoblah @rosiekind @adayinmallacoota @helenm2016 @onewing @chipsngravy @flowerfairyann @dizzyd @paulmann @stiggle @gaylewood @tristansmum thank you everyone for your enthusiasm and comments on this shot. I'm delighted - I have a whole collection of shots from this session. @marshwader thanks for the constructive criticism and i agree, this one needed a little more contrast and doesn't have the extent of white on it as my others so could do with lightening up a bit.

@ethelperry by the way. Thanks for your suggestion. I'm considering ace membership as a reward to myself if I get to the end of year one.
