Unrequested character!

While I was preparing a shoot of this cockpit table in the Iles de Lérins (Bay of Cannes) last week, this little wasp invaded the cockpit, rapidly followed by its people!

They didn't get me and I could do my job, but I like to control who's invited when I shoot!

Good thing...

Nicolas,

It's a good thing you know how to use Photoshop. You can have two photos for the price of one using the crop tool or you can just use the healing brush or the clone tool and remove the offending wasp. (lol) or maybe you want to add a major invasion of wasps to the image....lots of possibilities

Nicolas,

You should have more control over the bystanders at your shoot LOL.

You caught the wasp well, but I'd like to see the pictures from the assignment.

Nicolas,

Don't listen to Kathy, LOL! She is pseaking to your love of perfection and that's a dangerous broom which can sweep away the flaws which bring life and space to a sterile picture. I love the way the bee.wasp has invaded this perfect place. Actually the spirits that guide my impulsivity, sent the creature to liven your picture.

I realy enjoy the perfect table, confortable seating, peace and calm of the water, the idyllic background of hills and lush trees with just enough cloud to show the potential for weather.

The next time use your 1DsIII to take several shots and do an HDR of the little thing and add your M&N logo on the thorax of the visitor. This could be your new trademark!

Hi Charles

the pic is this one, but because of the knife position (on the left corner of the table) and the cushions (not nice looking, too much on foreground), it will not be used - someone will be fired ;-)

Got spare angles but cannot share…



BTW lens is Sigma 12-24 @ 12 - no crop - ISO 200 - 1/800s - ƒ8

Me to! but not a good thing for a shot supposed to promote the cool life on board the yacht… LoL

Similar experience at a football game the other day...

Something like this but with better resolution? just for fun !

Thanks Greg
but I'm not so happy, because of the knife and the cushions, I should have seen those defaults, but as I already said in another post It was, despite the place and weather, a tough and very long day… (http://www.openphotographyforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=35341&postcount=4)…

Not as sharp as your bug, but mine was more of a moving target and at longer range. ;-)
