marc_dufour Posted July 21, 2006 Share #1 Posted July 21, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Guadeloupe, 2000. This lizard was resting quietly in the shade. It let me take half a dozen of pictures, without be perturbed at all. R 6.2, Vario-Elmar 70-210, Kodak EPP. Thanks for looking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuny Posted July 21, 2006 Share #2 Posted July 21, 2006 Mark - A lovely female green land iguana. Excellent, amusing catch, terrific detail, and appealing bokeh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_dufour Posted July 21, 2006 Author Share #3 Posted July 21, 2006 Thanks a lot, Stuart, for so kind comments. Iguanas are specially interesting beings, and photogenics ones. Marc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotografr Posted July 21, 2006 Share #6 Posted July 21, 2006 I love this one. Great color and detail, interesting body position. The background really makes the iguana pop out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_dufour Posted July 21, 2006 Author Share #7 Posted July 21, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks, Brent The strange of it, is, despite the dymanism of its position, it was absolutly quiet. I don't know if waiting to jump, or thinking that I shouldn't see it. Marc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leicamann Posted July 22, 2006 Share #11 Posted July 22, 2006 Marc, great shot,good color and generaly well conceived. Could you explain you choice of film here, since EPP is generally used for portraiture photography. Regards "Leicamann" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_dufour Posted July 22, 2006 Author Share #12 Posted July 22, 2006 Leicamann, First I used Kodachrome 64 and 25 (from 70's) but the developing process were very slow, and I finally tired. Adviced by a professional, I changed to Kodak EPP. But I was not very satisfied with the color fidelity. So, in 2000, advised by another good professional, I checked Velvia 100F. And I still use it, until today. The picture above is one of the last I took with EPP. Thanks for your time and comments. Marc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
