i am sure chairman mao would not feel out of place to be put together with deities and dragons. cos during his heydays, i am sure a lot of followers worship him like god. nice capture!

A feast for the eyes!

Great work, everyone!

If someone ever asks me if Pentax cameras/lenses can take great photos, I know where to direct them.. :)

Damsel fly 2

Still very harsh flash, not listening to fW's advise of not directing the flashing from top, but I guess I will have to be on ground level (which is all mud!).

Looks like a long, fun day! Too bad I missed this one, next month must try to make sure I'm free to join you guys again!
 

nice composition and color!

love the simplistic compo and colour of these shots. bro, you have a unique style. :thumbsup:

i like this one. :D

Thanks for the kind words.
I shot those since I found out that I couldn't shoot macro for nuts. Unless I have a 100mm macro and ring flash, that is. ;)

Here's a more complex composition.

HDR anyone?
I messed up the alignment there. 1st HDR attempt though. This concludes the SBG portion.

tis series has the nostalgic feeling of film. must be very challenging to grapple with the focus, composition and exposure during shooting. the colour seems a bit off on those of the chess players, though. i dont know whether it is the light from the overhead canopy? :think:

For me, forcusing is the most challenging one when using this type of camera. The photos are developed and scanned by the lab. I leave them as it is and just resize and uploaded here without any PP to the photos.

I adjusted the colour for the 2nd pic, hope it is better now.:)
 

no sunset yet?
let me start:cool:
