Oct 05, 2014 10:22 | #1 Made this impromptu shot the other day, and curious if it has any redeeming qualities. Obviously it's more of a closeup than macro, but I wasn't sure where to put it. I'll post it up in post processing also to get ideas.  Mostly Canon Stuff. Flashpoint Explor600/Zoom Li-On. Always learning.

Archibald You must be quackers!  More info | Oct 05, 2014 10:45 | #2 This kind of stuff is fun to do. Some are more successful than others. This one is pretty good. There is some mystery about that blue ball. The lighting is good. I think I would have tried to get more of the pavement in sharp focus.

Yes, I'm pretty new at all of this. 40mm, f/2.8, 1/400s, ISO250, natural light I would move the focus to the ball...........

Oct 05, 2014 12:54 | #7 Playing around with the image in LR, it appears to be much more than a selective focus adjustment that KillerClown did. It almost made the asphalt rocks 'watery'; photoshop effect? What a neat learning exercise in a number of ways. Thanks folks. Mostly Canon Stuff. Flashpoint Explor600/Zoom Li-On. Always learning.

Yes I did this quick fix in cs6 using layers, added a filter, converted to black and white then brought the blue back, whole job in less than a minute......

I don't use these type of things in macro and I don't think they would work but macro is not my main topic.... Thanks. I'll play around with he LR filters and see what kind of effects are pleasing.
