Re: Metellina segmentata
That is exceptionally nice! What machine would provide handheld stacks of a subject hanging in the breeze?

Would you mind explaining how you use the bean bag?
What makes photography such a strange invention is that its primary raw materials are light and time.

Just support the camera and lens on a small bean bag, the sort you can buy for resting computer tablets on tables. There is enough give in the bag to allow a very smooth forward movement of the lens whilst activating the shutter.u/zerosapte wrote: ↑Sun Oct 11, 2020 1:41 amExcellent shot.Picosvistas wrote: ↑Mon Oct 05, 2020 12:14 amNo machine, just a bean bag and moment with no breezeMarkSturtevant wrote: ↑Sat Oct 03, 2020 11:31 amThat is exceptionally nice!
