  • Hallo Annet, prachtige foto's! Ik zal zeker deze camera meenemen in mijn zoektocht naar een nieuwe. Maar de camera is natuurlijk niet alles, de fotograaf is het belangrijkste en jij bent een hele goeie. Ik kan mijn favoriet niet aanwijzen, er zijn teveel mooie. Die staartmees heet in het engels long tailed tit. Groetjes, Hanna.

  • Congratulations on the Featured Album. Most people put their weaker photos towards the back of the album, I found the best photos towards the back of yours. Your birds are supurb, the frozen web creative, well composed, balanced and well saturated. I hope you've entered it in Photo of the Day contests. Check out Stevesdigicams POTD for a list. My favorite is the Water Drop. Just another drop? I think not. Suzan

Insofar as having a new Rebel, how is it that you got along without it for so long, at least until now? Enjoy your featured album. Thanks for the tour. From a very rainy coastline in Oregon. Ron

  • Hallo Annet, Mooie aanvullingen op dit album. Ik verbaas me er iedere keer weer over hoe je erin slaagt die kleine vliegertjes zo scherp te fotograferen. Je plakt ze toch niet stiekem ok het blaadje vast hè?(grapje) Nee echt, de grote vliegers zijn ook heel mooi gefotografeerd, vooral die arend is heel bijzonder. Groeten, Hanneke

    said  of hanneke176 hanneke176 2004.09.26 at 13:59:53 PDT

  • Hoi Annet. Ik vond dit album zo mooi dat ik Marjon maar een zetje had gegeven... Jullie hebben tenslotte dezelfde camera en dat bindt.... dat die kleine beestjes scherp en groot in beeld brengen vermoeiend is hoef je mij en marjon niet te vertellen. We verbazen ons er eigenlijk elke keer weer over hoe vermoeiend fotograferen is als je het een uur of 2-3 intensief doet. Moeie oogjes, maar ook verder best moe... Of ben je nog te jong, fris en fruitig om dat te merken. Bedankt voor het binnenwippen bij mijn Dahlias! Groetsen Anna

  • Hoi Annet, Anna Oldenhave stuurde me een link naar je album. Indrukwekkende macro's, echt fantastisch! Ik heb ook een Canon Rebel, maar mijn macro's (Tamron 28-200mm lens) lijken helemaal nergens op bij kleinere onderwerpen zoals insecten. Misschien moet ik ook eens naar die Sigma macrolens kijken. Ik ben erg blij dat ik deze foto's heb gezien. Groeten, Marjon
