Thin-film Optics

[Frank Schmidt]

f/18 ISO 100, 85mm, 64 second exposure.

To bring the tiebar out I needed a fairly dark image. Small flashlight applied as needed to light the scene after 2 seconds of oil lamp light.

Wren Helwig in Branson, Missouri is the glass artist who makes the dichroic jewelry (and Oil Lamps).

I am new to this forum and using the art of photography. I joined to learn. My comments on your photograph are this: I like it's sultry, sexy feel however it is a little too dark. I think I understand the softness you were trying to achieve though. I wish I knew how to enhance it but being new to this...I don't. Over all I like it. Oh ya... it helps that wine is one of my favorite pleasures in life.
