Beautiful, Kerfree, thank you for the brief glimpse of the world outside Vermont! I love the Cluster of orchids - that dark technique is really nice. What were your settings? I grow orchids and can't stop photographing them - should I be taking them outdoors at night to get this lighting?
Thank you so much Skydanser - we are bracing ourselves for the return to Maine and still more than a foot of snow... But hang in - spring is a'comin! Right?
For the orchid shots I used f2.8, ISO 400 (the shade was pretty deep) and adjusted the speed as needed. I don't think you want to be taking your orchids outside yet - they'll freeze! Perhaps a piece of black velvet or other dark background would accomplish the same affect. Good luck and please pm me when you post the results, so I don't miss them!

What beautiful shots! And I think the wind added to the charm of those last couple. Loved the sea spray, the cardinal was great. So many good shots I could never pick a favorite. Great work and thanks for sharing.

The winds have been wild, crazy, and incessant - which as limited optimum photographic opportunities. I love the little yellow-billed cardinals, but the wind was buffeting me so much and the ISO I think was too high. I don't have noise reduction software, but am considering noise ninga and am wondering if it would help those images. Aloha and Mahalo!
