Default Lemons

My wife has this oil lamp sitting in the kitchen so I thought I'd play around with a still shot. Not great on the lighting but I kind of like the way it turned out.

Lemons (Acid_Burn_09)

I have Windrider to thank for inspiration for this- I used Flaming Pears Flood for the effect.

These are some really cool shots. I especially like the effect on the second one.

Both look great, but I like the first one best. The framing looks excellent. It's something I'd put on my kitchen wall.

Hi Mike - looks very nice - even the lighting ... that Michelle (Windrider) .. she's an image manipulator, isn't she?

I love Still Life. You've done an excellent job bringing out the rich colors on the jar's contents with your lighting and your post production. Delicious!

Thanks, Hayward. And yes, the things Michelle does in post is amazing.

Thanks, Linda. I find myself looking at everything with a different perspective then I did before I took on this hobby less than a year ago. Almost everything I look at is "how can I capture that?"
