Another monarch shot
^great, perfect specimen!
this sunday morning, started out totally clear, then some low clouds drifted in from the west...
as you'll see, the light levels were all over the place; i'll have to work on processing technique to smooth those out!

We'll go with some wing close-ups for today.
from the past couple of mornings.
nothing really noteworthy.
first tuesday, with lots of wind.
then today, relatively calm.

thanks, but you're far too kind!
tripod setup, baby-sit camera for the first 20 minutes, step up shutter speed while light changes a lot.
then leave the camera on auto-interval, 7 secs, auto iso and aperture.
get coffee. with or without a bagel.
return in 30 minutes.
close the tripod, go home.
on monitor, select whichever frame 'looks' interesting.
delete the rest, perhaps render a video in process.
get lunch, do whatever day has in store, dinner, sleep, repeat next morning.
boring routine.
hopefully we'll get freed someday soon!

I love shooting closeup and macro shots, but I’m not very good at it.
It can be addictive! Definitely have to accept you'll be throwing away 95% of your shots.

I know a photographer that has a computer controlled rail. The program snaps a shot, advances the rail a programmed amount, snaps the next shot, etc.
He then photo stacks the shots to get very deep depth of field on macro shots. I’ve seen him stack several hundred shots.

I do small stacks now and then, usually less than 10. Much more than that and my computer really doesn't like it. I like those big stack pics others do, but for me I'd rather be outside walking around shooting than sitting inside fiddling with tripods and rails.
I'm SO out of the loop! I had no idea that anything like this exists! My last real "experimental" photography was with film. I was young and self taught and the internet would have been helpful!

And saving money by mailing the film out to "Clark's" for processing and having to wait for a week or sometimes two for delivery to see what mistakes I'd made.
You may have waited long enough. Film is making a comeback!
I think the closest I will come to that is in buying converters for my old Minolta lenses to use on my DSLR bodies.
Lol, but I am much more likely to keep using my Moto G6 tracfone camera! And editing the pics for fun.
