Challenge: Hands (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S5100
Location: On my trusty old lightbox
Date: Mar 15, 2006
Aperture: F4
ISO: 400
Shutter: auto
Galleries: Vintage, Science and Technology
Date Uploaded: Mar 15, 2006

 I shot this about 100 times with/without flash, from up close and far away and this is what I finally decided on. It is over a lightbox so I wanted to keep the hand somewhat dark with just a hint of color.

Oh, for the good old days. Nice clean image, just a touch more front illumination might help. Thanks for the nostalgia.

Tough to shoot so wide an exposure range, and while the action is well shot the hand itself is too dark to see the detail that is hinted atin the outline that is visible.

too much noise in the dark parts due to wrong exposure, would also have shot from a higher point of view to get a look through the lens. Nice concept.
