I was working with a Henna artist for this photoshoot. The week previous, I was reading more about reversing the 50mm lens to get macro shots. I had just broke mine, and so I thought I'd give my 85mm lens a try at it. When I first saw the pictures I took, I was somewhat upset that the edges were blurry, but then thought I could make good use of it.
For this shot, I have the 85mm lens reversed, hand holding and focusing it. Its slightly tilted so the top right gets more blur.
As far as processing the image. I shot in RAW, and used photoshop lightroom to process it. I used the preset of aged photo, then increased the black & contrast, did some minor play with the tone. Enhances a few color ranges, vignetted it, and called it a day.
Hope you enjoy. |

| This should've scored a lot higher, IMO. (I gave you an 8). It's really lovely, and I hope your model and the henna artist agree. |
