Car monopoly by vikdaddy

Car monopoly

The sun's shone recently, but I've been too busy to get outside. It's a shame because it's been a while since my last landscape shot, and I do really enjoy doing them. I miss using my ultra-wide angle lens! So, with little time to spare, I took another shot indoors.

Also, it's another image using the reverse macro technique and another with a texture added. I also included a border; something I rarely do.

I've been asked to be the official photographer for Comic Relief. Let me clarify; the company I work for has a call centre, and it will be taking part on the night to take donations. I've been asked to take photos of the event, which will be another great experience and a pleasant way of doing my bit for charity.

Canon 7D, f/0, 1/200, ISO-100
Well done on the Comic Relief job! Nice pic too :)

Congrats! And nice shot. Is there really an f/0?!

@lrappa Doing the reverse macro gives you such a shallow f-stop it is virtually f/0. But actually it's because your lens isn't connected to your camera, so the camera cannot define what the f-stop is!
