Challenge: Mother (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon PowerShot Pro1
Location: Frontyard, Home
Date: Dec 28, 2005
Aperture: 3.5
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/250
Galleries: Nature, Macro
Date Uploaded: Jan 1, 2006

It's summer and the butterflies are hatching but rarely land still for more than a second or so to take a shot. This one stayed long enough for me to run inside, get the camera and take just 2 shots - then she was gone.

Mother?

How does this reflect the challenge?

An expert capture! Bumping up.

Gorgeous colors, meets the challenge, nice compostion. The only criticism I have is that it seems ever-so-slightly out of focus (except the antennae are perfect!).

Composition is ok. The subject matter could have been better. The image quality is ok. Has potential of being really creative. - 4

This is a gorgeous image, wonderful contrast and vibrant color. The DOF is right on, the color combination in the background really adds to this shot.

Great Photo! Not intuitive has anything to do with Mother!

Beautiful image of this butterfly, but again the Mother factor, I am just not sure.......

What does this have to do with the challenge? Good pic but if it's too vague to understand easily or just doesn't apply the score is going to be low. 3

Are you really sure this isn't a male?
01/02/2006 08:47:32 PM
yea...don't really see how this fits a mother theme nice image though

Nice butterfly image. So how does one tell if it's a mother butterfly? :-)

Beautiful photo. It would probably do very well in a different photo. The connection to motherhood just isn't obvious enough I think. But still very beautiful and well done.
01/02/2006 05:50:25 PM
I just can't make the mother connection...except "moth"-er. Problem is, I believe this is a butterfly. The picture isn't too bad. I'd prefer the background to be a more neutral tone, rather than the magentas.

Where's Mother?
01/02/2006 12:30:06 AM
I don't get the mother part
