I enjoy finding objects that work well with over-exposure but I'm usually working in color so it was an additional challenge to find objects that would also translate well to black and white.
Many thanks to one and all for the views, great comments and favs! I guess I should have included how I achieved this shot. The glass sits on the sill of my front window which gets the afternoon sun. So I purposely took the picture in the morning so that the light was softer. After reading all those articles to post with the weekly instructions one thing stayed in my head- set the camera 2 to 3 stops above the proper setting to achieve the high-key look. That erased everything in the background and left the glass in the picture. I made sure it was sharp and took the shot. I converted the picture to black and white in the computer after making sure I had a good amount of contrast between the three pieces and adding a little vibrance. And there you have it! Thanks again for stopping by!
