Some feedback so far:
-
Very pretty and dreamy colour tones, and a sweet isolation of the star of the show!
-
Super shot, thinking outside the box here to get a great and different composition. Really like it!
-
Sweet, sweet, sweet. This is fabulous.
-
Just beautiful – elegant and sweet.
Hope you have a chance to get out and about soon. -
Lovely shot Kristel. You’ll have to teach me someday how to create this beautiful effect. I always end up with images that lack the softness yours have. Well seen and captured.
-
Gorgeous OOF foreground and background – beautiful image.

- Beautiful Kristel! I can’t believe it! In the NE USA we had 35 degrees and snow last week and today it is almost 90 degrees (F of course) and hot and humid!
- The snow gives it a pastel look. May was colder than usual here.
- Love the detail and contrast.
- Another beautiful image!
- So beautiful!!!! Stay warm
- I love the delicate detail and dusting of snow Kristel — superb image!
- I like this low-contrast rendition. It shows that winter must not always be harsh, but can be gentle too.

November Mood in Spring
La Grande Cascade| Auvergne, France
Some feedback so far:
- Who says you can’t get a great shot in bad weather
Very nice! - his says cold and damp. I like the waterfall peeking from the fog.
- What a beautiful scene. Your framing and use of the fog in the frame is well done. Nicely done.

The first flower images of 2013
Posted on April 13, 2013
Finally Spring by
Kristel Schneider
I hereby declare the flower season open
When the wood anemones wake up, Spring has arrived for me and can you imagine, it is mid April and I took my first flower image of 2013 !
This afternoon I tried out a different composition, I often look for back-light or color contrast. In this image the fresh grass gave a soft green background and by combining the Anemone with some other flowers I got a nice ‘flower bouquet’.
Last year I noticed that almost all my flower images were shot with my Canon 300mmL lens. So today I took my Sigma 150mm macro lens with a 1.4 extender, a combination I will try to use more often this year.
Happy flower season everybody!

Some feedback :
– This is awesome! What a gorgeous comp & I love the softness!
– Beautiful combination of the anemone with the bed straw (I think that’s what it’s called). Love the bright whites and the stamen details.
– A beautiful spring composition that certainly hits the mark imo – sadly rain and wind over here, so here’s hoping for some of that sunshine.
