Purple Flower Photography Test X


It would seem that often the last picture of a set taken is often the best one. Is that 'chance' at play or just because I am practicing? More testing needed.

I think this is the best shot of the bunch (for the purple).

There`s that pesky painting in the background again. I like the colours on this one for sure.

Is that a lemon under there? :)

Another shot of the purple flower, but this time inside using studio lights. Not too bad, compared to the overcast I had going on the balcony. Good times.

Purple Flower Photography Test X


Playing around outside on the balcony. You can already see an improvement in the light and colours. Nothing beats the sun. Nice shade of purple, in my opinion.

Cinema high again.


Update:
Now that I look at this again, I really dislike the colour in the background. I have better shots.

Ok, so in the studio, playing around with flower and my lights. Two out of 5 light bulbs have already burnt out. Technology needs to invent a bulb that can last. didn't have enough light, but had fun playing around. Sun would be way better.

Cinema high on the processing.

Flower Photography Test VII


Just playing around with lighting and some flowers from across the street. Sure is handy they deliver so much across the street. Flowers are way too pricey though. Cinema High on the processing here. Two hard lights used, 500 watts x 2 on a stand, and another 500 watt on the floor from bottom up.

I like the lighting effects here. I don't really have a studio here, but I like to play around.
Wish list includes some pro strobe light systems. ($) all in due time.

Living room night test


I actually took this shot at night on a 5 minute exposure, but shined my flashlight on that painting above the couch. Kind of a neat outcome..
