Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Janet: Carol, I am just reading this.  So sorry for your loss, glad your beloved Don knew the Lord and you have the assurance of his eternity  and that you WILL see him again.  Much love to you.  Janet 2022-06-18, 08:49:36

Oldiesmann: So sorry for your loss Carol. Praying for you and your family :( 2022-05-01, 17:13:05

Carol: My husband Don is with the angels.....Our family was able to hold  ourselves together for the last moments.  Juar rhoufhr you might want to know. 2022-04-29, 23:35:15

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

JennyW: Autumn is shaping up to be quite beautiful this year! 2021-10-02, 12:24:03

The Sigma 70-300 DG macro zoom is remarkably good for a low-priced telephoto.

Whoa!  Now THAT'S impressive!  Well done.

I just got my DSLR last week (Oly E-410) so I'm having fun learning the little in's & out's.

The picture has amazing focus and depth of field. Did you use a tripod?

No tripod.  I got down on my belly, about 2 meters from the dandelion, and used a very small aperature to get the depth of field needed.   There was plenty of sun in an open area, with dark woods behind, so it turned out rather well.

Mrs. Barbarian just got her Olympus E-410 a month or so ago; she loves it.   I'm amazed how light and compact it is.   And then it hit me; the top looks remarkably like the old Olympus OM-1 so tiny and light that it revolutionized 35mm SLR design.

I'm rather impressed with it as well.  It's my first DSLR and except for the lens thing, it's pretty portable.  I have a Nikon P90 for that, though.  Here's my rendition of your subject.  I wasn't as ambitious as you.  I picked it, brought it indoors and shot it against black velvet using a tripod and the kit lens.  See what you think
