Those are incredible...

 

I know you've probably said before but I'm being lazy and am going to ask...

 

What set up are you using - camera - lens

 

Thanks Pickle. I'm using a Canon Powershot G9. I have a wide angle converter for it that I sometimes use for landscapes and stuff like the pic Lalani quoted.

 

Amber won't let me have an SLR yet...but I'm still pushing :D

 

Wow Daniel! Those are some amazing pictures! Here's your prize! :flower::lol: I LOVE water lilies.

 

:lol: Thank you :) I wish I'd heard about this place earlier - it's only a 5 minute drive from my apartment, and it's several acres of ponds, along with a couple miles of trails through the marshes. Supposedly, they have some of the species that has the HUGE lilypads, so I'll have to go back sometime in the summer and check it out again.

Wow amazing, I take it your photographing underwater plants, but to me this looks like an ariel shot of a bamboo grove under a cloudy sky.

Been fighting my D80 lately. Not sure if a setting got messed up or something is going bad but the metering seems way off. Here is an attempt at a rose that I took from my yard...

Nice roses kuianai and SaltWaterNewb. Here's hoping its a setting and not something more important (or at least more expensive) :)

:happy: Yay!! That's what I thought too :) They're actually only a few inches high with the shadows of trees on them.

While I was in the paddle boat for my prayer/exercise time & had an awesome shot but, alas, no camera. There was a very large snake sunning on one of huge fishing rocks along the edge of the pond. With the pond plants it was a great shot. Oh, well! I took a nature walk & here are some of the shots I got at different spots on our property.

Im sure this has been asked before, but dshnarw what camera are you using to take those fantastic pics??

 

 

I think it would be very helpful if everyone who posted pics stated the camera they used. Maybe on the first post of this thread or something. Just an idea :)

Great shots abe. Looks like you had a good time.

it was really fun. shame it rained five out of seven days though. would have gone fishing then and gone diving at an island (trip got cancelled). the storm became a hurricane over mexico.

Not fun. Glad you had a good time anyway. I have wanted to go since my daughter went there on a missions trip. It looks like a beautiful place.

Little late, but thanks! Abe is right - it's a Canon G9. Might throw that in my sig and make it easier for people.
