Introducing My Model Slithering Suzie.

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Really cool picture. I think that I would prefer for atleast some of the shell to be in focus though, in fact I'm having a hard time finding the focus point. Love the weird translucence of the eye thing.

Hi all,

Thanks for looking through my Galleries & the comments.
Ray, you know I didn't even think to play around with the DOF. :? Thats next.

It was my first night i went Remote with the SB800, that was hard enough thanks to the rocket scientist's instruction manual :x

:shock:

It came out all right I think considering :D

Stay tuned they can only get better

Mic. :wink:

Hi Mic

The world of macro is a wonderful place to go - it gives a whole new perspective on life.

It is not easy and one of the best exponents of macro on this forum is Flyer who must have the patience of Job.

I use the 105mm EX DG: are you using the Nikon, Tamron or Sigma Mic?
