I took this macro photo while on a trip to Thailand last Winter. I saw the fly land on the leaf and got my tripod out and set up. I took some shots from a distance away and approached gradually, but the fly remained on the leaf. This photo is the closest I got before he flew away. The most photogenic fly I ever met.

On Ella Rock, a mountain in Ella, Sri Lanka, one can find this perfect gum tree forest.

For a Star Wars fan, it was like walking on the Forest Moon of Endor.

The Wanderer At The Campfire

By Dominic Kamp

February 27th, 2018

No matter how dark the night, the bigger the campfire, the more darkness is revealed!

Taken with a Nikon D850 and a Sigma 14mm @ f/1.8 (ISO 400) & 15 seconds exposure. Three individual shots were stitched together in Lightroom CC Classic and then processed in Photoshop CC. Color correction with NIK Color Efex. Finding right spot & preparation took 6h plus editing another 3h. Enjoy and let me know whether you'd like to know more.

Shades of Nature

Revisiting my photo collection of 2014, now on retina display, brings an other dimension to the shots taken in Antelope Canyon (lower), Arizona.

I know IFL has a few of these shots, including some of mine, but who can say they are tired to look at them? It's a unique place with infinite perspective and shapes.
