PEOPLE - Colour Workshop

How you save your image is important, depending on the application it is going to be used for. Saving your image as Adobe RGB is good for greens and colours, so especially good for landscape shots with a lot of green in, sRGB is a good all round file for web viewing, whereas Prophoto is quite flat.

Objects - Final Images

These are my final images for the Objects brief. I have printed them using a professional Q Lab, and window mounted them into a portfolio with all the details of how I took them attached to the images, along with some comments about the images themselves.

OBJECTS

I was pleased with this shot, except to say that it wasn't successful because the focus is on the engine, not the character, who is obscured by the curved glass. I used a studio still life table and Nikon D700 with studio flash, but in hindsight, a light tent might have been more successful to cut out reflections.

OBJECTS

I didn't use this image for my final objects as the focal point wasn't on his head, which is important with macro or close up to get the right bit focused!

OBJECTS

This was my set up for taking an organic form, in this case it was an Orchid. I set it against a black background on a studio still life table, and using a 2 brolly set up at 45 degree angles overhead, and a gold reflector underneath to give it a bit of warmth. The original image was taken with a Nikon D700 SLR, with a 24 - 70mm f.2.8 telephoto lens, at a focal length of 70mm, ISO 200 and an aperture of f.18 and 1/200 the second exposure, using studio flash.
