Challenge: Free Study XIII (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
Location: My bedroom, CA
Date: Sep 30, 2006
Galleries: Black and White, Nude
Date Uploaded: Sep 30, 2006

 Did this with only the closet light, as I didn't have anything else, so I think it turned out well considering that. Otherwise, it's just okay.

I did a lot of PP to correct the crappy lighting though. Lots of burning and a little cloning to take out inconsistencies and added grain, and I think that's it.

I didn't really take any photos this month, and I have better photos from the shoot, but don't want to post those as they're sort of private.

Anyway, I just really wanted to submit something, so hopefully I can get over a 5 with this.

You are probably getting comments to the contrary, but I like the grain in this shot.

This is beautiful...the light, the curves, and grain...all so perfectly wrought...I feel like I'm looking at an image that could have been made yesterday, or years and even decades ago, this is so timeless...bravo!

I really like the quietness of this photo. The lighting does a great job of setting the mood.

you've made good use of the noise here...whereas most digital b+w's never achieve a decent replication of the feeling of film grain, I think you've done that here. well done

The texture created by the noise in this photo adds a lot of interest. I also like the effect of the shadows on her back.

Nice idea but not much interest on the right hand side of the photo.

Was the speckling intentional or is this just grainy. This picture has a good feel of softness.
