  • In this photography vlog, I continue to build a collection of intimate forest scenes encapsulating the characteristics and small details of ferns! With a Nikon D850 and a Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG HSM Macro Lens on hand, I observe and photograph curling ferns while enjoying the peacefulness of the outdoors.

    Courtney, it looks like a majority vote: ALL OF YOUR VIEWERS HAVE MISSED YOUR DANCING! Glad to see the dance routine come back. I too live in a land of ferns, and the fiddle heads are fun to shoot. And they look good in monochrome. Thanks for sharing your day with us! We'll keep watching over your shoulder from Olympic Nat'l Park, Port Angeles, WA., USA!!! Take care.

    It wasn't shaping up to be a good day. Then I saw you had posted a video. I love your attitude toward being opened minded about photography. Not getting a great image is nothing to fret about. Just getting out with your camera is a reward in itself.

    Super!! So glad the dancin is back! Boogie Boogie. When I'm not photographing concerts I always look for something else within the shot just like you, dragons, elves or whatever it may be, that's the beauty of photography it's always special to the person taking the photo. Another great video Courtney, thank you 🖤

    Thank you for sharing your feminine and thoughtful perspective on forest/macro photography.
    Oh, bugs make fantastic subjects. They are also far more scared of you than you may be of them. After having a Phidippus regius jumping spider as a pet for macro photography, I got over my fear of spiders. She was far more scared of me.
    She died after laying her unfertilised eggs. Lonely and unforfilled. I won't get another, I felt quite sorry for her.

    @jamesoliver6625 6 дней назад

    Courtney, my kit is very similar to your (an 850 and a 780). I find it useful to engage vintage glass (read economical quality) that restricts my options to force me to see from a forced perspective I wouldn't normally entertain. I have one of the old 35-70 f2.8 D F-mount lenses that brought images in view, from the restriction, that I wouldn't have noticed before.

Now I can't not see it. Thank you for sharing.
