This is my first attempt at light painting and I'm quite pleased with how they've turned out, admittedly I've tweaked them in lightroom a little but not a lot.

All comments welcomed:)
 
No comments, are these really that bad :shrug:
 
Thanks for the feedback, good or bad it's always appreciated. I see what your saying and will try with more dof next time
 
I think the second works better than the first. I'm not sure about more depth of field, but I wonder if the other "10" on the top-most card would have been better to be in-focus? that would have given a lead-in out-of-focus area as well as allowing the other cards to be identified - I can't tell you're holding two pairs in the second shot.

New years day afternoon.. there's probably a few people having a meal or out for a walk, maybe too soon to worry about a lack of response ;)
 
True, it does seem quiet this afternoon.

I agree the other 10 should be the focus point, giving a definite view of the hand held, will have to try again. The hand in both shots is a royal flush.
 
Now I look more closely, so it is.. just goes to show that maybe a touch more focus would help.. I was sure it was A,10,J,J,10.. must go to Specsavers..
 
Bit of a tweek with the colours to bring the cards out

Personally I find the DoF far to shallow in all of these and the last you've pushed the blacks to far in PP :shrug:

I think that if you broaden the DoF a little to have more of the cards in focus and then maybe have the chips in actual stack it would work a lot better (y)
