Single Blue

Blueberry shot with Canon Powershot sx50hs zoomed to 400mm, iso 80, f-8 at 1/640 sec. also the Raynox 250 close up filter attached to the front of the lens. One of the finest points about the sx50 is I can sync. the flash up to 1/800 sec. Lighing is from on camera Nikon sb600 flash with tin foil modifier to extend the light out and down. The berry has filled the frame without cropping and I am very satisfied with the depth of field.

Another version with a couple more blueberries added.

A closer shot zoomed from 400mm to 600mm.

Beyond the Federation

In a galaxy far far away the watermelon planet waits patiently. When they will visit is anybodys guess. Created today just for fun in Photoshop to hone my skills.
