At the Mercy of the Winds
Uploaded: May 12, 2011
Using a BR2-A reversing ring on my camera and attaching it with my 35mm Nikor in reverse enabled me to get up close to this dandelion seed base. Manual mode, camera on tripod, Shutter speed @ 1 sec, ISO 200, don't know the exact f/stop (probably f/16) as I used my fingers on the aperture clip on the reverse of the lens to slightly open the aperture ring and tried to keep it there for 1 sec. Shot in RAW, processed in PS CS2 and Topaz.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.

I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
