Very sharp Merv. You do a fantastic job at this.

The way you shaded the latest wood burning almost looks like a wood carving. Really nice stuff, Merv.

Your works are miracle, Merv

Thank you Aaron, Eric and Shinpachi. I tried to use a little of the 3D techniques I learned in skinning and the shadow and highlight effects in drawing. I wasn't sure how the broken pieces would look, it was trial and error to get the look I wanted.

Dam dude, I thought it was a carving!

Thanks VB greatly appreciated. It was such a nice day today, I decided to go out into the yard and try some Macro shots. I found a bunch of bees and flies around one of my bushes, so I thought I would give it a shot Suggestions appreciated.

those are great Merv, like to mess with the macro setting on my little Fuji.

how many times had the fly gone before the shutter clicked ?

Since I am a novice I shall ask, what kind of lens did you use?

 

[Gnomey]

Good shots Merv!

 

[ontos]

Thanks guys I'm glad you liked them, it was a little challenging using manual focus and no stabilization, hand held. VB the lens was a Canon 100mm Macro lens.
