Very lovely, nice colors. I want to do more wildlife mysefl, but nothing's really alive and running about except for ducks in my neighborhood The one thing thats a bit distracting to me is the blurred out branch (I think) that's in the view of the bird's right foot... or my monitor is really dirty. Very beautiful and inspiring work as always!

An American Robin if I'm not mistaken.

It's a branch. Kinda unavoidable considering I was shooting through a tree.

The b/w photo of the sea nettles s insanely (hope that word exists in english) great. The sad thing of animal photography is, that its hard to see certain animals these days :=(.

I really like the alligators (guess I have a thing for reptiles lately) - they look thoroughly dangerous.
The Deep is gorgeous, also is the stingrays compilation. I like the sharpness of the sea nettles, which is maybe missing a bit in the otters' pic.

All beautiful, but I love "Float On" and "Stasis" the best! Stasis has that nice blue gradient.

Cool. My fave is definately 'stasis',
the way the orange of the jellyfish contrasts with the blue is awesome.
great work!

I love "Stasis," the bright colors are gorgeous. Shadow on the bottom right looks cool too.
I agree that the branch on the American Robin is distracting- I can see how that would be hard to avoid though!

Great animal photos!

I love the pastel colors in Blue angel, and the Sniffing Tiger macro is beautiful, too.

I like the colors and the composition in Close Encounter a lot, but I'm not sure if a bit more narrow aperture wouldn't help it. In general, I really like open aperture shots in macros, but here I somehow wish it's eye was all in focus. But I'm nitpicking

Love the last two, especially the betta one. Beautiful, sad mood and very nice tones.

Thanx Nike. "Close Encounter" was a bit too quick of a capture (it was on my finger ). DOF has been bothering me on it though. At original size it looks sharper.

I'm glad you got the mood in "Say Goodbye" I was worried if I would be the only one to get it. I may still go back and brighten the highlights a little though.

The Bumblebee picture is lovely. There are so many nice colors in it yet they don't come off as busy. Close encounter is really nice too.

Thanks a lot!

I've heard extension tubes, and close-up filters give great results as well!
