Challenge: Painting With Light II (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS
Location: London, UK
Date: Feb 25, 2006
Aperture: f10
ISO: 100
Shutter: 20seconds
Galleries: Macro, Floral
Date Uploaded: Feb 25, 2006

 I used a small maglite torch as the light source for this shot. Shining the light from above for 10seconds and then 'painting' in the leaves and stem. The scene was placed in front of a section of black velvet to reduce the background to black.

I like it -- but i don't like the rightmost leaf. Cropping it out of the image makes a much stronger statement for me.

Good job done, though the light source is static I believe, not moving.

Very nice. Looks like a painting. The high light on the flower is just a tad overexposed, but I'm just nit pickin.

It's my favourite among the illuminated object pictures. The way you may the petals glow, the subtle illumination of the leaves is perfect on a black background. Exquisite!
