I love #6.
I had to take pictures of water recently, and I had to show the differences between clear water and yellow water in B&W...it turns out in B&W...there is no real difference between them. I don't get to PS it either...
I turn my pictures into the paper today and see what they say about mine...

It wasn't hard at all, I had somebody hold the fountain, then I photoshopped it out using the clone stame tool. I did use my new 430EX flash though
. Thanks for the comments and please do post your pictures up. I'd be more than happy to view them !

This is the first night i got my 20D, my uncles palce was boring and it was cold and rainy out so i just messed around with stuff i could find and he smokes like a chimney.
Burnt out
the colors arent great - one it was a flourescent light bulb and 2nd i have master the manual white balance settines yet.

I have some of my recent pictures at my blog ( http://photogblogs.com/blogs/timaxe/ ), but I'll post a few here...
They're not all that creative though. I just wanted to show yellow water next to a clear liquid...and who would have known they don't sell individual water bottles in clear containers here - only sodas.
I just used a shutter speed of 1/250 here, used flash (onboard 20d flash because my 420EX batteries were recharging) and turned all of the lights off in the room and got it as dark as possible. A shutter speed of 1/250 could never freeze the action of moving water, but the flash duration would. I just didn't want to deal with odd color temps for most of these though.
Since I don't live where I took the pictures though, I can't just redo it easily. Did it in about 10-15 minutes and had to leave for other picture taking.
(the yellow water dissapeared after running the faucet for a while)
(didn't work because the dirty window was required to keep stuff from falling out and the container was not fully transparent - I later tried a wider lens because I wanted a less magnified background, but it was a tree and not a pretty green/blue scene)

You probably want to stay with Canon Lenses right? I believe the Canon 100mm Macro is a very good candidate. A couple of people on here have that lens. Just search for it
.I, myself have the Tamron SP AF 90mm Di and it works for me.
Also, you might want to ask our resident Macro Guru on here PS-RagE. He has all the goodies, for sure. You should see his Macro photography, it's pretty mind boggling!

Very nice capture. I like it a lot
! Nicely done bro!Tim_axe said:
Dude your photo blog is dope! I like the swimming competion and the Karate Angle one... Very nice! The running squirrel & "The Guys" picture looks like it came from a movie capture. Wow, really nice shots Tim
!Also, when you say "yellow" water, is that what I'm thinking it is
(PISS?) lol!

so thas a way to do it, i have to working on my light abilities and such, right now i am mastering manual quick focusing with rapid shots.
that is a sweet blog, bookmarked that one for sure!
As for the lense i dont need to stay with canon, especially with their prices! well over $1000 for a decent macro + a 1:1 adapter.
Do you guys send any pics to istockphoto.com ? i upload some good ones now and then myself.
it took me alot of tries to get this guy to focus, it was windy and overcast so i had to crank up the ISO to 1600 i beleive to get a decent shutter speed off it, i hate that about digital cam's - the lught seems just fine, yet the camera doesnt seem to think so.
here is all the info
the picture to me the spider almost like jumps out like it is beveled or something.
(hope you dont mind i borrowed your white / black borders)
