Description
Sitting out on the patio on Saturday afternoon, kicking back on the first truly nice day of the year, fiddling with cameras, taking pictures of light and shade.
Sometimes I get great shots with the new Canon, and sometimes I get total crap, so I'm working on settings and whatnot, trying to figure out what works and what doesn't. There are days when I want to chuck the whole thing and go back to my little DiMage! Other days I love the Canon.
This turned out really bad on the DiMage ... blown highlights ... but I liked the way it turned out with the Canon, so I guess I won't be tossing it in the bog THIS week! LOL!

This is a great shot of the light through the leaves. Great capture.
Fantastic image!!
Wonderful light capture
Well, I daresay you're getting some very good shots with it, even if you can't spell "Canon." LOL
Lovely shot of this with the canon, Beautiful capture..
What a lovely light you got here Tara. Lovely colors too.
excellent my friend
I LOVE the shadow of the 'creature'! A super pic, but then your 'little' camera pics are too!
Nice work.... Aloha
Well done. Your composition keeps reminding me of the art in shooting little pieces. Somehow I've drifted off to mostly big things and lots of whole things again. Time for me to think small some more...:)
I love catching things in light like this. Lovely!
Wonderful shot!
Delicate and relaxing.. Until the next B-25 roars over! (ask Bill.. lol) Fabulous shot.. well done Tara.. Rob
Oh Hun, I didn't even know that you have a new toy!!! Congrats!!! I'm also a Canon gal!!! I like them! Never toss the old one though!!! This image is amazing - the backlight perfect! I love it!
Such a lovely and inspiring shot!
Yeah, I'd keep the Canon a day or two more - this is superb - the detail and strong contrast are eye-catching. Of course your own skills in composition help a bit too. ;)
Some great detail there Tara .Dont shot it away just yet :o) Mick

Yeah, you should keep it for a while yet!! I love the light, the dark side, everything about this.
I like it too brings a smile warm hugs, Linda Kaye
I like complex images that appear simple. You have to go exploring to dig out all the goodies. The light is perfect. The veins on the leaves, the shadows on the lower leaves, the dark background and, of course, the 'horned' silhouette all add to the 'simplicity' of this picture. Excellent work.
Nice one, Tara! Plenty of detail in the leaves, even in this fairly high contrast situation. I wouldn't toss the Canon just yet, but if you do, put it in a box and toss it this way :-D
keep on shooting with the cannon. it will be great when you learn i still mess up on it so do not worry . we all take bad shots at times
Lovely shot; you can't go wrong with light through leaves! If you decide to toss the Canon let me know where you toss it :)
I love a good Cannon, no matter what the make may be. My little workhorse has more than paid for itself with all of the pictures I've taken, and to be nice, I'm buying a new memory card for it soon. Now, as for this photo, I love the way that the leaves look luminous, as if THEY are the source of the light. How incredibly nice! And don't you just love playing with settings? That's how I learned how to do night shots, by the way...just fiddle until you stumble across something!
Beautiful capture and lighting! I love the shadow on the third leaf from the left. Dana
Great capture...love that color of green...I just gave some curtains away that color
Pure. Simply good!
