This is a similar color version of the black and white shot I uploaded yesterday. It's not the best exposure for the whitest whites but, I liked the little sun flare on the edge of the glass.
This is really pretty! Love all the shadows and highlights! I did try and look up the technique....but it was too technical and I thought my head may explode o.O It doesn't take much!
@heidievans73 LOL! I know! That's why I never got it over 30 years ago back in my college days! But, I think I've boiled it down to simpler terms. See what I wrote on yesterdays photo and "zoning" should be easier to understand. I wish my old professor had put it in "those" terms way back when! =) Thank you for your sweet comments!
@phil_howcroft Yesterday's was just black and white. This one is color and it's not the exposure for the whitest whites but, I did like this one best. Thank you for your encouraging comments, Phil!
Beautiful again!! This one seems to have more shadow and depth . . but yesterday's looks more fragile and delicate. Should the result be more like this one?
@karenann Yesterday's shot is in black and white. This one is in color and is not the whitest whites exposure but, I just liked this one better. Yesterday's shot was the maximum exposure limit before I lost my pure black. It had less mid-tones because of it. Keep in mind, knowing how to use zoning for crisp black and white photos will help you with better looking color photos. It's just better to use zoning with black and white photos first, then apply the same principles to your color shots. Make sense? Thank you for your sweet comments, Karen.
@princesicita Aww! Princess, you do have a way with words! Thank you so very much!
