Not an extraordinary shot, a wildflower and a bee, but I like the way I caught it flying away while the flower remained in focus. Below, the same scene just four seconds earlier.Rien d'extraordinaire, une abeille sur une fleur, mais j'aime le mouvement d'envol de la bestiole alors que la mise au point est sur la fleur. Ci-dessous, la même scène quatre secondes plus tôt.
Wow Nathalie, these shots are fantastic. I've tried similar shots without the same success! But then I'm a beginner and you are a pro! I mean that in the kindest sense. It is great to be home but I miss all of you. We had the best time in Avignon and meeting you was the icing on the cake. Much love to you dear Nathalie. xx
ReplyDeleteI like the photos quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteThe delicate colors of the flower are nice.
Nice depth of field and colors.
ReplyDeleteNathalie the Macro Queen! I can't even begin to capture these. Bravo.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your blog, thank you!
ReplyDeleteMAis si c'est assez extraordinaire cet envol .
ReplyDeleteBonjour Nathalie !
ReplyDeleteBel envol oui...
Les deux photos sont très belles...
Sourire : Tu devrais essayer de faire pareil avec un avion... Je Te taquine.
A plus tard...
Wow - great capture - well done!
ReplyDeleteDe la douceur sur le second cliché et un superbe décollage au premier... bien vu ;-)
ReplyDeleteProduis-tu du miel?
ReplyDeleteThese are two very nice shots. I love the one with the bee in motion. Perfect.
ReplyDeleteWonderful - love the action here. Beautiful macro shot as always. I adored Musee Calvet yesterday.
ReplyDelete"Not an extraordinary shot"?!?
ReplyDeleteI would say that it is spectacular! You must be a harsh judge? :)
Thank you for your blog. Great photos. It's good that you have French and English on your blog. I was in Avignon in April and loved it. After I came back I read the book about the Palais des Papes, "Avignon of the Popes" by Edwin Mullins. So glad I came across your blog. Looking forward to seeing more of your photos.
ReplyDeleteSi, si, cette photo (la 1ere) est extraordinaire !
ReplyDelete"Dans un pays de tous les temps
ReplyDeleteVit la plus belle des abeilles
Que l'on ait vu depuis longtemps
S'envoler à travers le ciel
Cette petite abeille porte le nom de Maya
Petite oui mais espiègle Maya !
Qui n'a vraiment peur de rien
Qui suit toujours son chemin
Venez donc découvrir la malicieuse Maya
Petite oui mais espiègle Maya !
Tout le monde aimera Maya
Maya...
Maya raconte-nous ta vie"
Maya l'abeille
Belles macros, moi j'ai pas la patience pour ce type de photo, bravo
I like your low view point which gives you the blue sky. I can't get down like that anymore. If I did then it would take half the day to figure out some way to get back up on my feet.
ReplyDeleteI think it is a nearly perfect photograph. You must be a steady gal and not shake at all. Or, you have an image stabilization lens.
They look pretty extraordinary to me! Awesome shots!
ReplyDeleteFun shots. I like the challenge of trying to capture a bee with my camera. Sometimes it works and sometimes.... Oh, well. Your bottom photo works.
ReplyDeleteLove your comment on my blog about the blue bridge. ;-) Yes, the colour is a bit garish, isn't it?
Just a couple of notes in answer to your questions about the brush on my post today.
ReplyDeleteThis was 1953 before synthetic anything. So the bristles are real and I don't really know what animal they came from. They look the same today as they were then. I suspect that when you turn the bottom and the brush is sucked down inside the case and then the cap is put on that this process has protected the bristles more than if exposed.
I posed the same question about the feet being cropped on the post. I don't know. I was on the photographer's side of the street and had a long lens and suspect it was too long for the distance and I must have chosen to crop the feet more than that hat.
It is an extraordinary image. Outstanding.
ReplyDeletequasiment une photo de sport ;)
