Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro for Canon
Location: VT - usa

Galleries: Abstract, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Mar 8, 2005

sigma 105mm f:2.8 ex dg macro @ f:2.8 - ISO 200 - 1/60.

i used a black reflector to create the dark side, and took the photo at a 45 deg angle. it's my paper cutter.

adjusted levels, converted to BW with channel mixer, quick masked all but the lower left, and adjusted white and black points, rotated 180. canvas size for border, resize, save as for web.

it has a three dimensional feel to it. hope you enjoy...

Powerful, effective use of centering and narrow DOF. Nice.

Use of depth of field is just stunning here and for a cartographer as I am - very appealing - 10 hope this does well for you!

Man, I'm such a sucker for shallow DOF when used well... as it is here.
