lower iso value when you shoot that gives you less noise :)

@stijn: Hi Stijn. Noise was intentionally added with Photoshop. Even my ISO 1600 doesn't give me good grain. CMOS! Haha
Wendy from Hayward, United States
Wow, what a moment you capture! Looks like they are too busy to even notice you were around. There are ways to redude the noise too besides lowering the ISO down, like noise ninja for eample. Nice one!

@Wendy: Oh nono, noise was added on purpose. I do that quite often to some of my photos. Guess this one didn't quite make the cut eh?
Thanks for your comment and feedback Wendy
@cedRic: Ewwwwww super Mohinder man..

Denise from Malaysia
Ming, are those two insects? They look like their connected and 'hibbidy dibbidy' is a cool worD! I'm gonna start using it. Hehehe! =) By THEE wayy, NICE SHOT! hey, is it because you don't have your macro lens thiing that the insect isn't SO clear? Or is that what you meant to do? -denise:) I like the font here. I type so much. hehe

@Denise: Hey Nise.. Sad to say that I meant it to be slightly blur looking... And slightly darkened to create a sort of old film picture.. But don't think it worked out.. And yup! A macro lens would be sharper cause it's built to shoot these critters
