Title: [Theme] urban nature close-up
Post by: HCS on September 12, 2015, 16:36:33
So, i do not have access to the beautiful sceneries many of you seem to have access to. I also don't have the imagination to turn ordinary, every-day things into something like art. Therefor, i'd thought to start something like an urban nature close-up thread. Please add your stuff if you please.

Let's start it off with a spidy i found against the wall close to our back door. The yellow stuff are regular bricks, gives a clue of the scale.

I like the too tight crop :) loosing the feet and letting the legs extended out of the frame is great

Great detail of a brick wall... :-) I gather you have some more in the same vein, I'll be happy seeing them as the urban "genre" is my favorite !!!

Thanks Erik. I do have the shot with all of its legs in the frame, but somehow it doesn't have the same impact (for me).

Thanks Jacques. I certainly have more in the same genre, but was also hoping others would chime in with their "urban nature" close-ups.

Would this one qualify?
It's an interesting concept, Hans. I never thought of placing flowers among concrete but it is a fact that it's all around us...
Title: Re: urban nature close-up

I am not sure if the Sorbus will qualify as urban nature, but it's nearly blocking my back-door.

The spidy - fully agree with Erik - the fact that you couldnt get all the legs in the frame reflects the fact that they are loooooong.
Title: Re: urban nature close-up
Post by: HCS on September 13, 2015, 10:46:42
Elsa, thanks!

Great stuff guys, that's what i'm talking about.

For me, the difficult part of this theme is not only to get a good close-up, but also to still show that it's in an urban setting (for like with the bricks and mortar, for Jacques with the cracked tile (?)).

I'll try to post more stuff in this thread, but would invite anyone to also post their shots in this theme.
Title: Re: urban nature close-up
Post by: John Geerts on September 13, 2015, 12:27:37
Thanks for the explanation, Hans. My previous contribution didn't qualify, I guess. 

Hopefully this one does.    At the step of my front-door.  (I really love Urban nature)  ;)

Title: Re: urban nature close-up
Post by: HCS on September 13, 2015, 15:04:26
John, that is excellent.

To be honest, there is of course no "official" definition. So, whether your previous one qualifies or not is up to the viewer. Regardless, i like it.

Great one, Frank. Somehow, i missed that you added another one to the thread. I must have some dead flies around somewhere, i'll try to find the pictures.

First, another spidy in the garden. Not as close up as the topic starter, but with a WA this time (nikon 24 2.8 ais).

No worries, doesn't have to be spiders. Any kind of nature in an urban setting would do. But, if you have nothing, also OK of course.

Thanks for commenting.

A number of Oenothera's (Evening Primrose) are growing in a field just around the corner in the middle of the city. Early 2015 more than 200 houses were teared down. The ground and area is left untouched since then and surrounded by a high gate. A bit of trespassing was necessary to make this 'close - up'.

Something just down the street.  Some kind of grass, with recent reproductive structures. An articulating finder or rear LCD (preferably of the 'visible in sunlight' type) would have been helpful.

I think Snails belong to the urban nature?

I still think it's "trèfle" in french. The petite-oseille has different leaves  ;D

Ajuga reptans 'Rubra' is the proper Latin name have no idea what it may be in French.

Superb shot John. Sharp like razors!

Fons - love the colors in your last shot. That's quite shallow DOF. Nice contrast as well.

Thanks Anirban (sorry for the late reply)

Another example of some Urban Nature or is it agriculture?

Should still qualify as urban nature.

Great composition!

Lovely shot John. I really like how extremely the background contrasts with what you would expect to see when focusing on the main subject. These grains really took a wrong turn :)

Thanks Buddy. Shot it at @17 to get the surroundings.

Only 60 years ago it were all agricultural fields, the grain seeds must have survived somehow   ;)  And close nearby there was a windmill.

It's the time of year when the Vine growing on the house seeks new territory - including my balcony.
