Jeepers , never realised how hard it could be to shot a simple still life following some fairly simple rules.....200 shots later & rapidly losing the will to live I've posted my best one! Not fantastic but the best I could do
Just been reading some of the forum discussions on Photo Answers.......PP is a No No , the idea being to get the exposure right in camera ( or as close to right as you can) rather than tweak it in photoshop or whatever editing you use .
The tutorial in the mag is a bit misleading (being hessian background etc) but if you read the instructions for the Homework module & stick to them you can't go far wrong.Black or white background ,Aperture priority & natural light. Simples
Just noticed the tutorial says centre weighted metering but the instructions for the homework don't mention that .Guess I've failed then as I used spot metering:bonk:
