Steve Sprengel

Lincoln, Nebraska

I have yet to find a large enough piece of flexible black background so I magic wanded it away,
and recreated the upper and lower highlights via a reflected gradient with eyedroppered colors.

Here's the lighting setup: http://www.pbase.com/image/43438870

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel ,Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II

Interesting choice of exposure and f stop! You kept a long exposure so you could keep everything in focus, but why? Where is the background? Hmmm. This is an intriguing shot. Please, could you comment upon it? Lovely, truly but why the setup the way you did?
