A reshoot. My husband, the awesome, incredible, sexy, [user]nards656[/user] looked at my first one and said, "Were you using a polarizer? That would get rid of the glare of the picture."
Oh my freakin' gosh. What an idiot I am. So, against all my normal practices, I got everything back out (another abnormal practice for me -- cleaning up immediately after a shoot), and reshot it using my polarizer. BIG difference.
And, [user]jonfrommk[/user], I don't care what you say, stepping on these things in the middle of the night hurts worse than any Barbie grill you may have experienced. ahahahhaha
Still not great. See those spots? Can't get them off. They are either on the picture, or on the underside of the plastic, and I didn't have time to fully dis-assemble the picture and clean it. Sorry. Just gotta have spots.
Shot with toy die cast planes on a black notebook in front of a picture of (no, I did not take it) a USAF Thunderbird.
RAW -- contrast, sharpen, saturation, brightness
PSP -- saturation, crop, more contrast |

ha! wing envy? engine envy? I really get the sense that they are admiring the big plane - nice job conveying that emotion. A+ for taking the time to get everything out and setting it all up again lol. I hope you put them all away so someone does not accidentally step on them lol. |

I'm not sure if it occurred on the resize, but the edges all look a bit jagged. The concept is good, as is the composition, but the PP or focusing is off. |
