| The sunflowers are about dead now. I was wanting today to take a photo of some red peppercorns- the original idea being to make one look like Mars on a black background. I ended up just shooting three of them for an abstract. What I tried new on this was fooling the camera. It wanted to overexpose the shot, and had trouble focusing on the smooth surface. So, having noticed that when I use time-delay to take the picture, the camera locks in the settings at the beginning of the timeout, so I can stick a high-contrast, whiter object into the field of view when I press the shutter, which both reduced the exposure and gave the camera something concrete to focus on. Then I removed the object before it took the picture. As a result, very little level adjustment was needed here. Things I would do differently: ? Mods: Sharpened. | aug15 | |||||||||||
