[6 Stringed Fingers]

@Gtranquillity: I think the first one is better than the last one, since the extra space gave the fly a sense of direction and progression.

Is he a fottball-player? On this picture he looks extremly like a footballplayer. Portugesian maybe.... What do you say?

Great pics everyone!

@mardy: is the castle being used these days, and if so how?

@mardy: is the castle being used these days, and if so how?

The last owner had sold it to the town in around 1920, it was declared a cultural monument and has been mainly used as a sight for visitors, but occasionally also for various fairs and concerts. I worked there as a guide during my civil service (instead of military service). Its really beautiful up there and so is the view.

@mardy: ah, good, so if i ever come up there, i can be sure that you'll give me a proper tour.

Diana: Beautiful!

Siren: When your schedule permits I hope you can join us in representing your environs through images. I'd imagine we'd be treated to some gorgeous views.

Yes, ma'am!

I didnt take that picture, so I plan to make some more myself, including views of my town from the top of the tower. And I hope youll consider what wildfyr suggests above.

 

[DragonLady1]

funny, I also tried my new macro lens and my new camera with insects

 

[marduk1507]

Are those insects dead? Good photos, but nowhere near Dianas, sorry.

 

[DragonLady1]

of course they are dead but I didnt kill them, my brother collects them lol
it was just a first try out, I hope I can do more soon

The details are the beauty of them.

Exoskeletons are prettier than endoskeletons.

@wildfyr; marduk: ah, i wish i could do that, but i've yet to get a digital camera. i'll try to borrow one asap though.

Siren: I'm just trolling for more fotos of Greece. You posted some nice flora and native feline shots a while back. I enjoyed viewing those. More stuff from the Macedonia region would be welcome, too, if Cuthalion feels up to it. As a matter of fact, Northern Lights and Human Desert used to contribute lots of excellent images from their respective higher latitude regions. I miss that input, among others, but it's nice to see newer members taking an interest in representing their surroundings. Don't feel pressured to contribute, though, I know that even with digital output there can still be some time commitment to the whole camera > Web process.

Caroline: Wonderful shots! The high-end stuff you and Diana are creating is amazing work.

@wildfyr: i just don't know what i should get pictures of. maybe views of interesting things? general surroundings so you get an idea? i'll experiment soon enough if you just give me an idea of what you'd like to see.
