Good photo Ami.. enjoy work like you have done here! Mich

hi there. I saw this image of yours and decided to stop in to share a couple of thoughts with you.

I know that "conventional wisdom" tells us, when composing a shot, to fill the frame, and not have too much excess space or background around a subject. here though, I believe that the crop might've been more dramatic if it had been considerably wider. if the opportunity presents itself, try a much wider shot, with the lone feather placed either in the lower far right, or far left corner. now it's "alone". see?

one more thing, and that's a slight correction I hope you don't mind. this shot would actually be considered a close-up, not a macro. a macro is generally far more extreme, almost "microscopic" if you will. try wandering through the macro gallery, and perhaps you'll see some examples that'll (sorry for the pun) illustrate the difference.

that being said..cool feather!

Nice sharp details on the feather! Well captured Ami - I also like your idea of taking a photo of the feather. I wouldn't have thought of it and would have kicked it aside!

Cool feather and wonderful detail. Nice tips from Rob (third_eye) above. So many informative helpful tips from our Caedesian friends.

Nicely done, but the tips Rob gave you were very good. Keep on clicking Ami. ♪ ♫ :)sandi♪ =^..^=

It is a beautiful feather and the green natural background helps the softness and whiteness of the feather to stand out. Lovely photo.

Different...but good composition Ami! like this a lot!

A nice capture of reality, something people pass every day without a thought,you saw it as what it could be.

Hey...that's mine. It fell out of my hat. LOL.

Amazing how you got this feather to look so finely detailed, more than its surroundings! Nice photo Ami! Good detail on the feather! Thank you! Allen

I really like this image especially how you have captured the wispiness at one end of the feather. Well done!

Cool capture.....Have to agree....puttin ghte feather father out with more background would really give it a sence of "alone"....But this is a beautiful piece of work. On my DT for a bit.

I looks at the image and then your title and the first thing that came to my mind is "found" (by you), perhaps it from an angels wing..... Nice shot.

Good detail in this feather closeup Ami. A fine job and good post.

Very well done Ami. The detail and colors are amazing.

Fabulous close up showing such delicate feather and detail. Wonderful colours and composition Ami. Skates
