Much thanks! Specs: 50mm macro. F/16. Handheld.

Will try for the Naked Lady (flowers, not humans) --- when they bloom.

Love flower shots and a macro lens. Nice! Refresh my memory, wind. Where do you live that you still have flowers?

How do you decide what the exposure should be? I know, that's a real rookie question, but I've done about ZERO shots of that nature.
I’ve learned night photography from numerous outings…always shoot in “manual mode” and adjust the ISO, aperture, and shutter speed to what you want. Using “manual mode” along with your camera’s “live view” provides a preview of what the exposure will look like, and from there exposure values can be manually adjusted to your liking.

Thanks. It (night shots" ) will go on bucket list!
If you don't venture into the bird thread, I put out some peanuts, hoping to attract the colorful blue jays. It does work! Not tack sharp, but I was just quickly snapping through the window and had to hurry as it was time to go to work.


Breakfast on Park Avenue

Colors and texture. Such a pretty bird, if a bit of a bully.

Finally bought an LED light panel setup. Runs off rechargeable lithium batteries or AC. Light panel used for photo of old Fleetwood Mac album (blues era), on my Pro-ject turntable.
