Short description

Shurely it was possible to take this butterfly with 100ISO, a ring flash, from a sideview or topview for low noise and "perfekt?" DoF, but this causes in a very dark background, boring composition and unnatural colors. What i tried and still try is to display the 100% brightness of the background, i mean the state i have seen at the place. Its not possible with my cheaper 400D, so i used 800ISO which causes a slight noise. DoF: the most FP butterflies are from a sideview, so taking one from diagonal view by this distance and no crop at a apperature of 14 which is 3x higher than your eye (another unnatural thing) result in this image. As a example, this one is in apple-pie order with a greater distance, but very boring for me. --Richard Bartz 16:53, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The human eye works differently than a lens because the brain sees perceived sharpness differently than just whatever the aperture is.
