La Bella Luna
Uploaded: July 03, 2006 14:49:20
Aperture: 1:3.5, Shutter: 1/80 sec, ISO: 100, Location: Buchanan, VA, Date: 06/27/05.
Taken the morning after Dad left the spotlights on the house - there were beautiful moths (big & small) everywhere!
Decided to crop off portions of the wings for more artistic composition (although the wings were in great shape and I worked on a number of shots that include the whole wings). Other post-processing included increased color saturation, selective sharpening on the antennae and wing eyes, gaussian blur on a background layer for softer feel, resizing for Web.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
