I've always loved ladybugs! Nice shots, Rich!...what's DOF?

amazing the difference between 16bit and 24bit true color. wow. for your ducks was seeing nothing but a black picture with strong white 'marks'. you've got a lovely pair of spring Wood Ducks, and in 'freesia' a lone male.

really sorry no sun for you yet.

Thanks Nance,

I saw a few other ducks with different markings floating down the river. I wasn't able to get a shot of them. DOF Depth of Field. Closing the aperature increases the distance something is in focus. The ladybug was in a hanging flower pot, and the pot was moving. Movement and macro don't go together.

I has been in the 80's since yesterday after morning fog. More to come.

The butterfly is a map expirment. I made a non symmetrical transparent map to vary the shading across an object. There is a grid map that give an appearance of contours.

that weed looks pretty steady. very nice. Rich, about your butterfly map experiment #8-- that is really cool . are the 'spots' a seperate layer/map?

parahandy, do "CROW"... your creation from a friend's photo is really nice. ..... 'ee's getting lots'o protein

Nance,

A butterfly I drew in E3. I selected all and applied the map to all the objects. The map transparency is offset so that there is an opacity difference across the objects. There is a second drawing with a grid map applied. I can color all objects with a map at the same time. I made the map with erase blending in EGD. I can use a PNG image to erase something under it.
