Pretty in Pink

[Stagecoach]

Well I did say "in pink".

A different technique today where I went for max magnification for higher IQ but at the cost of DoF.

I have 16 of this series so may try and put them together for a short video if I can think of a way to align them perfectly (as him/her and I were moving for each shot) and crop the same size.

No 1


No 2


No 3


No 4

Hi Grahame,
not sure about the 'pink'. Think I prefer the 'in blue'......
But very very fascinating series, to say the least....!!! The wonders off nature.....
More to come ??

Thanks John, for these I have pushed the saturation a bit on the body.

Excellent photography, Grahame. How long does it take for the subject to emerge from the water in these sequence? ie how long between successive images?

Thank you Greg. From my first shot with its head just emerging from the water to it standing on its legs 2 minutes 5 seconds.

It sure felt longer than that chasing it

This illustrates how colors can change the mood of an image... really beutiful set of images; this mosquito must be feeling proud, if it comes to know abouts these images...

Thank you Nandakumar, I have the set up ready for an orange scene but my last few are not being very cooperative

That's bright, dare i say shocking pink? Which is not a complaint. Quick question, what bug is this?

It's a mosquito Brian. I have him at 2:1 magnification also with the detail of his eyes visible.
