Challenge: Shutter Speed (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-10D
Lens: Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM
Location: Outside yard
Date: Oct 30, 2005
Aperture: f/9
ISO: 100
Shutter: 0.5 sec
Galleries: Family, Action
Date Uploaded: Oct 30, 2005

 Shot outdoors at dusk, black cloth hung over my fence. Long shutter with the built in flash synced to end of exposure. I had to over drive the flash a little to get the exposure I wanted.

I enjoyed making this, but I never got the punch I was after... a bike wreck brought the shoot to a grumpy hault.

Production: Convert from RAW, Rotate, crop, Curves, Unsharpen Mask.

I like this shot. I keep meaning to try dhots like this but i'm not sure exactlyy how to do it. This is very well executed. Well done. You were robbed by the placing, should have been MUCH higher.

I know what you were after, but i want to see the whole thing, not the decapitated subject.

Nice capture, great lighting, color great, B&W good, not hip on ear shots but in this case it works, overall nice.
