    The thing I need I guess is a macro flash, preferably the MT 24EX flashes from Canon..!!
    all the shots of bees butterflies flowers flies insects drops that you have seen of my work here are all with tripod.things get more easy with a tripod.sometimes flash doesnt look always good on a subject where only natural light is sufficient and colors look more soothing.
    there are no stupid questions.


    but there are stupid people.

          I was expecting this comment that the picks are over sized when i uploaded them . So no issues . Can you let me know what size would be the best to upload and how to re size a pick without loosing their clarity . As i already said that only way i know is to edit with Paint Application and re size the same . Any other better ways to do . Would appreciate .

            Do it in Photoshop if you have that on your machine. Alternatively, while you upload your picture on an external image hosting website (like Tinypic.com), just before you upload it, you can select the resolution that you want.

            Keep the resolution to 800x600 if you can. That way it becomes easy to view the images.

            Thanks.

              Well thanks for the tips . I dont have photo shop installed . Will try to get that . The second method also looks attractive .

                  • which software are you guys using to map a HDR picture?
                    A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                    Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

                      Use Photomatix, one of the best HDR rendering softwares available.

                          PHOTOMATIX for realistic
                          DYNAMIC PHOTO HDR for artistic.

                          along with photoshop.
