WINNERS of @Art-Venture traditional Art contest: “Freesteyle Portrait”

*

 

First place goes to @brianhphotos: 50 Steem

 

 

This Macro of Wasp we could not ignore, especially if you click on image and get full screen you will see even more details. The technique that Brian used is Focus stalking or extreme Macro:

Focus stacking is a powerful technique for extending a photo's apparent depth of field. It's perhaps most useful in close-up and macro photography, since the camera lens's highest f-stop is often insufficient to render everything in focus.

• In this work Brian describes:

It‘s 5x magnification macro image of a wasps head, focus stacked from 24 individual shots. Having multiple comments to his images brian offered in future posts to do tutorial how he does Focus Staking so hopefully we all improve our skills in Macro Photography.

Thank you Brian and you deserve the First place!

 

 

Second place goes to @soroka74 40 Steem

 

 

That beautiful flower of saintpaulia especially the Pistil from such close distance. It is possible to see all little hair and the centre of a flower that is completely white. I am glad that you decided to use Nikon for the picture and not your smartphone.

Congratulation to the Second place!

 

 

Third place goes to @manuel82 : 30 Steem

 

 

Seeing that bright poisonous green we could not stop staring at this Iguana, details of the eyes, multiple colors of Iris and everything is quite good focused.

Well done and our Third Place!

 

 

Forth place goes to @orion7: 25 Steem

 

 

@orion7 with beautiful dewdrops on a green stem with reflection of flowers in the drops. Just captures the eye of viewer and once again we wonder about the masterpiece of our Nature.

Congratulation to Forth Place!

3x Honorable mentioning 10 Steem

Once again the magic of dewdrops but from other view and this time cold colour blue used to make a contrast to warm yellow. Absolutely astonishing effect.

Thank you for such beauty!

This Interesting insect we could not miss, @tambi mentioned that this is supposed to be ant, but looking at it it looks more like spider rather than ant for me. Very well captured looking at the legs we can see how the light goes through them and even to see the hair.

Well done!

@sammy00 with another picture of spider, like the web and dewdrops on the legs. Well done too!
