[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I found this little beauty while meandering around in the Nelspruit botanical gardens the other day and decided to get a pic of this guy. the photo came out as quite a disapointment as the focus was too soft. I had forgotten my UV filter on. but so we learn !

Welcome to Trek Lens
This is a very fine picture with which to start your adventure on TrekLens. The composition is very good, with fine lead-in lines and excellent placement of the subject (close to the proverbial power point). Framing, titling and signature all work very nicely. A little sharpening is always advisable before uploading images to the web as the the net seems to rob our images of some of the finer details. I hope to see lots more postings from you....

A few tips to make TrekLens easier and more fun:
- Read ABOUT (and FAQ)!
- Add your camera to your introduction (see Profiles, Equipment Profile)
- Take full advantage what TrekLens allows: up to 800 pixels along one on the sides of the picture and up to 200 Kbs file size!
- Always write more than 4 lines of NOTES (as you did here already). That allows members to give you points for usefulness and gives them a chance to learn more too!
- Each time you post a picture, take the time to visit at least 10 pictures in the Gallery to write a critique of the works of other photographers. Observing (and critiquing) the successes and errors of other members make for great opportunities to learn!
- Make use of the workshop (you’ll learn more about your own strengths and weaknesses by helping others improve)
I am sure that these ideas will help you make the most of your stay on the site!!

Hi Lee,

What an exceptional macro shot. It's nice and sharp, shallow DOF and how you framed it is really good. Well done
