Short description

Would say a reflection of the red wall on a metallic surface --Richard Bartz 08:01, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Tried it before but it looked to stocky for my taste. There is not much choice to find a spot to take a nice picture without disturbing buildings in the background. If taken from the left side you have the Kalaschnikov museum in the background, taken from the opposite side there is a unfortunate hill I was very happy that there was no parked cars on this time :) Otherwise the white lines on the ground fits with the white decoration lines on the building, just my opinion --Richard Bartz 08:01, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • If you are accustomed to a high image, it appears stocky cut. But stocky itself even for a picture makes no sense, the size suited to its subject/ Si tu es habitué a une image haute, découpée elle paraît trapue. Mais trapue en soi même pour une image n'a pas de sens, les dimensions son adaptée au sujet.Sorry, all my english com from Google translate. walké 13:37, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Neutral Great picture. I'm going to change to support, if this file with progressive jpeg-encoding is replaced by a normal jpeg version. I think progressive jpeg is rather disturbing the whole thing. --Jeses 10:16, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
? No clue, whats the difference? --Richard Bartz 11:59, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's very disturbing when you load it with a slow internet-connection. --Jeses 15:55, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
 Support much better --Jeses 10:57, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Support Composition is really nice... surely a definitive image. - Noumenon talk 16:07, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Question This picture is really nice, but why is it so small ? I have in mind people complaining about Fir0002's lowres pics, but we aren't that far from a picture fitting in a 1600 square here (and most of your recent submissions seen on FPC fit in a 1800 square)... I can understand that a picture of an insect needs being downsized to produce apparent quality because from my experience, it's harder to shoot macro than shooting landscape. But taking this kind of picture doesn't require that much dexterity I believe (so I suspect the larger version to have sufficient quality for FP), one just need to be at the right place, at the right time, under right conditions.

Size? surely, because its a one-shot taken by hand and to avoid these unpleasant commentaries about noise. Its not a 155 picture collage but it can stand --Richard Bartz 18:35, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for replying. I was just finding that this was quite a huge downsizing from a camera which takes 10mpix pics. I personnaly don't find the Canon 400D that noisy at 200 ISO (not enough for being a reason to oppose on FPC). I do the same (I reduce pics to fit them in 2000 square) when using my 18-55, which isn't very sharp, but I think you have some much better lenses (which one here ?). Benh 20:54, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
A cheap and not so sharp Sigma 18-50mm when iam travelling, but i am going to upgrade with this :) ASAP and this in a few weeks :)... The downsampling of my last insect macros was because i bought a Tamron 180mm Macro which has a strange backfocus on my 400d, but works great on a 5d or 1d. Its possible to adjust it but i give my 400d away :) :) :). --Richard Bartz 00:53, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again, and sorry to make you justify... I own "this" and strongly encourage you to get it :) But this is an EF-S lense and you said you wanted to give away your 400d ? does the new body you want to upgrade to take EF-S lenses ?? -- Benh 08:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I know that EF-S doesn't fit on 5d/1d but after (feb-may) i will sell the 400d with it as a kit lense. ;) --Richard Bartz 11:28, 27 October 2007 (UTC) [reply]
