Shiny veins

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-11T00:00:00Z

]]> Just thought it looked somewhat interesting is all.

Mini-forest

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-10T00:00:00Z

]]> These leaves are actually from some kinda moss-like thing hanging off a tree branch (i rotated the pic). I thought they look kinda like a mini-forest. :p

Between light and dark

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-09T00:00:00Z

]]> The light was rather nice on this flower with a play between light and dark on opposite ends.

Orchid bits

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-08T00:00:00Z

]]> In the full-sized version you can actually see the texture on the petal surfaces. Orchids are such intricate flowers.

Puzzled

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-07T00:00:00Z

]]> Is it me or do you see a face?

Tongue-like

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-04T00:00:00Z

]]> It's actually a rolled up leaf but it kinda looks like a hairy (ewww) tongue to me. :p

Drain Crane

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-03T00:00:00Z

]]> Ok, the title is somewhat misleading since i think this is a Great Egret and not a crane. Anyway, it's the same one from yesterday. I think in this pose it's plumage is more easily appreciated.

Stretched out

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-02T00:00:00Z

]]> I think it's a Great Egret. Shot this fella at a park, along a storm drain (thus the ugly background). I'd have to admit that in this shot the head isn't that sharp. The DOF wasn't enough to cover the whole bird (the wings are sharp). Still i think it looks pretty majestic all stretched out like ths huh?

Emerald

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-04-01T00:00:00Z

]]> Nature often stuns me with the colours it can come up with. On a technical note, i went with a high shutterspeed because the wind was causing me problems.

Spooky

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-03-28T00:00:00Z

]]> Something a little different from me. Did some photoshop work to try something unusual with the colours and effects. Does it work for you?

Sunset over the lake

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-03-27T00:00:00Z

]]> Sunset over the Chinese Gardens here in Singapore. I actually used exposure bracketing and took shots at various intervals with the intent to go HDR with this shot. However, i later realised that the HDR effect actually spoils the shot and makes it look too unreal for my liking.

Chinese lake

Jianfeng Yang — 2008-03-26T00:00:00Z

]]> Firstly, i've got to admit that this was actually taken at the Chinese Gardens here in Singapore. Secondly, the colour cast isn't on purpose. I think it was caused by a combination of stacking a whole bunch of filters to achieve the 20s exposure time and a weird AWB setting. I tried to fix it when processing the RAW but to no avail. :(
