Camera: Canon EOS-5D

Location: My dining room
Date: Apr 25, 2006
Aperture: f/16
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/125

Date Uploaded: Apr 25, 2006

 My very first time using the inverse command in Photoshop to create a negative image.

This is actually my innocent 7 month old son. My wife held him in front of a softbox with a 400 watt studio flash (yes, he can still see!) ;) My intent with this wasn't a DPC entry but a portrait.

There are a couple of annoying white spots in the background that had to stay due to basic editing mode.

Post edit:
inverse
crop
sharpen

Pretty cool, just wish you had gotten some more light in the eye to begin with, it´s a bit too bright after the invert. 6 from me.

The detail is stunning. Outstanding. Is there a contact lens? Slightly distracting from an image that screams intensity.

Very nice.....the reflection in the eye makes it look like there is a film of some sort over the eye and gives it an intense/mysterious/creepy look.
