Well, my push from @Cottiac has certainly pushed me! I just have a bridge camera and no other photographic equipment, I dont use a post processing programme, so it really is just me and my Nikon L840. I eventually achieved this (if indeed I have) using white paper, a reading lamp and the natural light of the sun and adjusting the exposure compensation setting. I know that it itsnt perfect as there is a little shadow at the base of the feather, but it is the best I could do, so hope that it is acceptable for the challenge this week. :-)
@365anne Oh man! You picked a subject I just love - hard not to fav that one!! I actually think this little shadow makes it look more 3D! Very well done Anne - especially as you have limited resources at your disposal!
@365anne Happens to me too! In fact it's pretty rare I ever see it when mine is on the Popular Page! Thanks for being such a good sport on this challenge - sorry to stretch you so far!
