Challenge: Macro Without Bugs or Flowers (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix 2800Z
Location: Powell, Ohio
Date: Nov 3, 2004
Galleries: Still Life, Macro
Date Uploaded: Nov 3, 2004

All that blue there seems to beckon for a ribbon. Eh? Ehh? C'mon.

Just had my eagle scout court of honor, I saw the challenge and started screwing around with the macro mode and various things on my desk. My medal and neckercheif happened to be there, so I threw together a quick composition, dumped the card, and never left this chair. Hmm, would this photo qualify for the 7 Deadly Sins challenge? Sloth? :D

Shot with a single light source, did some post processing, but I didn't take notes. Sharpened, I think, Saturation, Black and White Points, Brightness. Just I dunno to what extent.

Kia ora!

Good composition and detail of fabric.

Focus is soft, and color saturation seems weak. Or perhaps it is overexposed. Good imagery though. I probably would have made an effort to hide the chain/link/clasp in the upper right too.

Nice light and background --- not sure what it means.

Contrast is a little high, but this is very nicely detailed and composed

Good shot, but the focus is a bit soft on the foreground. Would have rated it higher if you had shot this with an increased DOF.

The focus not being tack sharp doesn't bother me here, as I think the photo works well as it is. The shadows are effective.
