Different from my taste ... but interesting. I tend to pre-visualize the final image before I release the shutter. I attempt to adjust the camera to reflect and capture the pre-visualized image I imagined. This image would be very difficult for me to pre-visualize. The more I write ... the more I reexamine the photo ... the more interesting it becomes.

This photo actually turned out nothing like I expected.
The reason was I accidentally developed for 24 degree times when it was actually 26 degrees in the room, so these are quite overdeveloped, a lot of the shots are completely fried, but this turned out quite well, somehow!

Ahhh ... overdevelopment would account for all the lighter zones in the photo. Just curious, how are you metering?

For this camera, just the onboard lightmeter, it's the EOS 650, quite a snazzy little camera.

the high key look works well for this image. might be a worthwhile trick to keep in your back pocket.

I thought of this photo of mine when I saw your post. I don't do much macro type work but I couldn't pass up this opportunity. I was out to photograph the Dallas skyline during the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. As I stood waiting I noticed this caterpillar right in front of me. I placed my Canon FD 35-105/macro on my F1-n and took this shot. I have the speed finder on my F1 so I can rotate the finder to waist level viewing just for shots like this. Caterpillars are interesting creatures with their wild hair styles.
