Detail from the 'Ten-Foot Pond' at Sheffield Park. I didn't notice the two damselflies until I cropped the shot.

  1. Lovely colours and contrast. I notice you do like to use a fairly narrow depth of field in the middle, on a lot of your “landscapes” (outdoor shots). The Damsel flies add a nice touch, but the Water Lily really stands out.

  2. Thanks, David. I’d take issue with … “a lot” … though ;)

    The last few outdoor shots were taken with the 400mm (whilst on borked dragon hunts). Alternative subjects and cloudy skies meant a wide open lens with shallow DoF. So, as “There be no dragons”, I shot stuff that I thought would work with the lens and weather :) .
