About the Image(s)
Three days ago I spotted the last bud on the rose bush outside my family room window. I ventured outside to photograph it, and while lining up the perfect angle I noticed a feather affixed to its sepal. I could not help but think that this bud dreamed of flying off to a warmer clime before the winter arrived. I call the image “Flight Dreams”.
Camera: Canon R 5 hand held; Lens: Canon RF 100mm macro; Settings: manual, 1/500sec, f 8, ISO 10,000 (I had set the ISO to automatic).
Processing: I imported the raw file into Lightroom Classic and cleaned up the background with the new generative AI remove tool in LRC. Then I cropped the image. Finally, I adjusted the color in NIK 7 Color Efex.
Has anyone a recommendation for a tripod/head that would safely work with the Canon R 5 and Canon RF 100-500mm lens. The combination is heavy and I do not want to risk it on the tripod I have.
This round’s discussion is now closed!

I have a tripod and head I use both for travel and locally which I love. The tripod is a FLM CP30-L4 II. B & H sells them and they offer several models. It is very strong and relatively light. The head I use is a Flex Shooter, medium size, although I think the smallest size would be sufficient for all but the heaviest of equipment. I paid extra to get the quick release plate as I am always taking my camera on and off the tripod as I prefer in most instances to hand hold.   Posted: 10/08/2024 16:17:51

The image looks fairly soft to me. I think if it was mine I would try to create an effect that mimics watercolor. I believe it has artistic potential, but as it is feel the softness is a liability.   Posted: 10/16/2024 13:08:45
