Ingrid,
Wrong INFO or not.... it is still a GREAT register.
Educative.... to me to say the least.
Greetings from Mario.
P.S. Dr. Ori Fragman "knows" about plants.... really. He is a friend!!!

Dear Ingrid,
Loved the RICHNESS of the green.
The yellow of the flower is BEAUTIFUL.
Very well focused subject. Can even see distinctly the tiny "hairs" at the edge of the flower's opening.
There are 8 tiny little white stars within this frame... MOST LOVELY. Wonder how you got them???
Hope you don't mind... but am going to ENLARGE your "flowers" just to prove to the TN world that you have done a MARVELOUS focusing job on this image.
Best & warm regards,
Mario from Calgary.

Dear friend, Ingrid,
OUTSTANDING NOTE.
Loved this part"..."four seasons in one day". ..."
Am so happy you enjoyed the Flora & Fauna. Will be marvelous to see all your new registers.
Hope your holiday was most relaxing.
Can actually see the fish in this frame.... LOVELY!!!
Warm regards to both of you from COLD COLD Calgary... you know who.

Jacqueline,
I like this image. Wings wide open. Nice.
Pleasing and IMPRESSIVE. Very regal.... I'd say.

Alexei,
When I saw the thumb nail I wrongly assumed that you had registered your subject in a "WHISTLING" mode; however, upon reading your notes I discovered the real reason of its wide open beak.
This species, I believe, migrated into Canada via Alaska from Russia. At first I thought it was a baby female Oriole; on closer inspection it is for sure a Northern Wheatear. I have one of them in my library of images. Shall post it someday. It came to visit us many, many times in the backyard for food.
This fellow was "posing" just for you.
HIGHLY IMPRESSIVE IMAGE. Very well done and its presentation is of EXCELLENT QUALITY.
Best regards from Calgary,
Mario.
P.S. Looks like my mother-in-law will pass away within days... according to the doctors.... but then what do they really know???
Only HE knows for sure when this will happen. She has lost her ability to walk....

Adrian,
Your flash did NOT fire; yet you have a lovely register.
How did you do this?
Great gentle soft colours too. Perhaps your software is of EXCELLENT quality. (PhotoScape)
I've tried to take similar images in the caves in the US when I went to visit Mt. Rushmore & also in Terceira Azores. Was a dismal failure. REALLY BAD. In those days I had no digital camera too.
This your image is of EXCELLENT QUALITY.
Greetings from Mario in Canada.

Goldy,
Love the gentle soft colours; great control. Nice MACRO, indeed.
Love the lights too. Sharp & BEAUTIFUL.
This is a COMMON JAY.
It looks like a swallow tail; but, it's not.
Greetings from Canada from,
