Flash of red - Overexposed #5

Couldn't quite get the composition right, but it sort of turned out ok...

Thanks to everyone who commented on my boring tomato shot too!

Love this. You've captured the shine on the shoes really well.

Very pretty! I love pointe shoes!

I think it turned out fine. Those are pretty ballet slippers. I love white on white look of it.

Nicelly captured Alia.

I like it! Especially the way the ribbons fall toward the side of the frame. Nicely done :)

Looks great - the shadow is just where you want it and the ribbons seem so airy

Beautiful b&w

Nice and bright! I've found that high key shots work out better if you can separate the object more from the background (helps get rid of shadows). Something to try.

Beautiful bright as a promise to the marvelous ballet dance to come

Nicely done.

This is lovely, textures are perfect :)

Very pretty! I had an idea of a high-key/over exposed shot of you lacing them up- just the hands and feet- light coming from behind mostly but enough coming from the front to get the outline of the laces and hands. I wonder if that's possible? After this week, I feel like I really know nothing about how to over expose on purpose!

Nice shot! I like how the ballet slippers have a soft look to them. Oh I do hope that they are ballet slippers! The focus is great and the tone of the photo is as well. Great job! And like Ann, I wouldn't know how to overexpose on purpose either! I can do it by accident though!

Nicely done and the satin sheen is fabulous

@archaeofrog Thanks for the tip! I'll try it out when I get chance :)
@olivetreeann If I had a very patient model and several hours I could probably (accidentally) get that to work, but I think my chances with self-timer would be zero! It sounds like it would be a pretty shot in the hands of someone competent! :)

@prttblues Thanks! Yep, these are pointe shoes (a type of ballet slipper). I definitely don't do well with this over/under exposing thing!
@attraversi @filsie65 For once I actually thought about composition and where to put the ribbons, so I'm glad you like them there! :)

Great lighting and composition. wonderful capture of those ballerina shoes.

he he. Overexposed but still performing well
February 23rd, 2013  
Love this shot!
February 23rd, 2013  
Lovely shot.
February 23rd, 2013  
I love the shimmer and shine of this.
February 23rd, 2013  
Love the sheen of the material.
February 23rd, 2013  
I really like this. I think that you over-exposed it very well and captured the sheen of the point shoes.
