O! How time flies!
We were walking the streets of Lesotho and I saw the old lady from afar. I knew I wanted a picture of her. She was such a beautiful character. I took the picture with my i-phone and did some processing in Photoshop. To me this picture symbolizes aging and how time just flies by.

Very nice. The insects is such an imporatnt part of life.
Most of the insects we are familiar with are tiny little things, but praying mantises are among the giants of the insect world. The praying mantises we see locally can be 2 inches to 3 inches long or even more, but don’t let that fool you into thinking they will be easy to spot.Despite…Read More

Hi Renate just my penny’s worth—I would have loved to see more subject and less background in these shots. The backgrounds feel quite busy, which makes the subject get a little lost, especially since the colours aren’t popping. John Fox has a great system where he sometimes uses a colourful paper backdrop to make insects stand out. It’s som…Read More

Southern Red Bishop Side-Eye
I’m going through old photos, and found this photo of a Southern Red Bishop eating and giving me the side-eye, taken at the Marievale Bird Sanctuary. This was taken before I joined DPC and learnt to shoot RAW, so it was shot as a JPEG, which means I didn’t do a lot of editing on it, just cropping and some texture…Read More

Take a look back at Danie’s B&W Portrait edit of Minnette.

A nice set of pictures, Riette. I really like the angles and the nostalgic feel. While the desaturated vintage effect works well, I think adding a bit more colour pop and contrast could enhance this beautiful set even more. Please upload these pictures to the OneDrive folders so I can show you how I would have edited them in our upcoming Monday…Read More
