Challenge: Breaking New Ground (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 EX Aspherical DG for Canon
Location: In the garden
Date: Jan 12, 2005
Aperture: f8
ISO: 400
Shutter: 30 seconds
Date Uploaded: Jan 17, 2005

 30 second exposure, during which I ran around, firing off my flash unit in strobe mode. This hasn't turned out as well as I might have hoped, but it's been too cloudy the past couple of nights for a re-shoot. Post-shot editing: sharpen in C1, rotate slightly, crop slightly, levels, shadow/highlight tool, resize, sharpen again.

Thats pretty neat wonder how it look with a soft light in or behind the covered area just soft enough to give it more feeling of dept.

This makes me think of the beginning to an acid-trip movie.

the colors are amazing and the lights intriguiging!! absolutely beautiful! The colors remind me of a childs painting (the collection and variation of colors) and it is so appealing!

A good attempt - but feel the location lets it down.

Strange feel to this one. It seems like a normal back yard, but then again there is something that makes me feel uneasy. Nice job.

A little dark (maybe only my computer) reminds me of a fairy tale
