Challenge: The Brothers Grimm (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd
Location: My bedroom
Date: Oct 4, 2008
Aperture: F/2.9
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/2 secs
Galleries: Still Life, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Oct 3, 2008

This shot is just a filler, if I can't get the shot I really want then I'll be leaving this in. My mum has had this glass shoe for many years; I set it on a box covered with my black dressing gown and shot it under the light in my bedroom with a reflector to bounce the light onto the shoe.

Edit: Cropped, converted to b&w because it was a bit too yellow and I couldn't get the hue adjustment right; adjusted brightness/contrast using levels, resized, sharpened and cloned out a bunch of sensor dust (I need to start wiping my lens before I shoot.)

Glass Is very hard to process as you found out, with spot healing a lot of glass flaws could have been removed and cleaned the image up, I predict a 6 in your next few submissions you have a good style,

the image seems to have a bit too much of a graphic feel for a fairy tale - but it is cool that you found the glass slipper...the question is "Does it fit?"

Cool; you found a glass slipper! Looks almost well-worn.

Perfect subject for the challenge, but a pain to light I bet!

Ok - you entered something, eh? :-) It's "ok" as a photo I guess, but not very strong on the "story" board. JMO. Good luck.

Oh, goodness. An actual glass slipper. Excellent. Nicely composed and exposed.
