An easy, very photogenic subject, I know, but pleasing shapes and textures nonetheless. The subject also provided more practice at focus and dof control which is my current "project".
I know this will sound silly but I'm struggling to get my head around where the light is coming from in this shot (from which direction, I mean). If anyone can shed any light (ha ha) I would be very grateful.
Constructive criticism very much appreciated - keen to learn more and improve. I bought a decent camera in February 2016 and joyed this wonderful space...
I can't shed any light on the light issue (I see what you did!) ;) because it's hard to tell in b&w particularly - however I think this is a beautiful shot! Great light (wherever it's coming from!) and dof.
Easy, but beautiful. I get a few shots like this, too, where the light seems to be "backlit" but there is no direct light. I think sometimes there is "ambient" light that causes things like this to "glow".
@thewatersphotos Maybe you're right about the ambient light, Gary. I looked and looked at the original colour shot and couldn't work where the light was coming from.
