Description
ok, my first time with black and white
my first time actually like....
arranging stuff
this is what came of it.
I think the lighting needs to be fixed
the shorter candle is dark black, but looks light
because its reflecting the light
but I like my candles n thought they would
look pretty cool for a picture,
and I was tired of taking pictures
of eggs and apples heh
Anyone have any suggestions for b&w
how to get the lighting so it doesnt
wash out the subject....
would be preciatttttted :D
Thanks :D
*oh and on a side note:
My ex roomate got these candles for me
for my birthday last year
because I like that sorta stuff
we read the little tags on them
after I opened them and realized..
she had just given me funeral candles
HAHAH ahem. oh well I still like them :)

cool candles!... are you using a flash or one set away from your camera? the experts should be along shortly with an answer... nice setup though, at first i wasn't sure about the white on the right but i see it balances the white on the table... all in all i think this came out really well- personally i might heighten the contrast for more drama, but that's just me

I had a dorky lil desk lamp pointed in their direction cuz whoever designed my kitchen must have figured we didnt want to see what we were eating :S heh. and I think the flash popped up even though I asked it not to LOL

I like the composition...a rather nice arrangement of objects and the black silky fabric adds a nice touch. Overall I think the image could be a bit sharper...quick run thru unsharp mask filter would do the trick there. I think the lighting is not bad but the contrast is a bit flat.... this can be handled in camera if your camera has a manual mode. You simply adjust the exposure by 1-2 stops to make the blacks black and not 18% grey which is what the camera meter will want to do. If not use an image editing program and adjust the levels to set you white and black points.

Thanks Michelle :) I have photoshop, and maybe if I play around with it a little I can get it a bit better. Im still trying to figure out my new camera, but I really REALLY appreciate your input. :) thank you
