Challenge: Light (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon PowerShot A75
Location: Dining Room
Date: Jan 29, 2005
Aperture: 8
ISO: Auto
Shutter: 8
Date Uploaded: Jan 30, 2005

Shot on a leather jacket on my dining room table with a small red light as a the only light source. Cropped, Desaturated, Neat Imaged.

The light source is a small red light held to the base then moved around to create multiple reflections without ever showing the light itself.

Some of this scene is about illusion. I wanted to create the illusion of a standing glass which at first glance seemed to be the source of the light. The composition is designed to cause a pause and some careful inspection.

The light, red reflections on the glass, are good; but the image is too dark. The details are all bunched up on the left-side of the histogram, and loses a lot of detail. I think it would have been better if you had not rotated the image as well.

Interesting composition... it took a while for the right part of the picture to form itself for me. I'm not sure I "get it," but that doesn't really matter. :)
