  #90 Low Key 		Entry 3 of 20
   
 
Play it again, Sam       ©2010 Lo
Panasonic DMC-FZ30       3rd place, 145 points
1s, f3.6, ISO 80, ?, Manual, Pattern, no flash
 
Post-Processing: Converted from RAW. Cloned a few marks off the old piano to show her at her best, evened out background colour, reduced highlights, resized and sharpened for entry.       Extra Info: This piano was manufactured by the Haines Brothers in New York. If only it could talk, I'm sure there would be tales to tell of bar room brawls, smoke filled taverns, and music that would fill your soul.

Oct 19, 2010		     You're right - the model is Michael aka Sherlock, found out in his own disguise... I'll have to ask him to model again, if these are the results I can get!!! :)

Oct 19, 2010		     Congratulations! Iwas sure that the pianist was Mepo. I thought he had taken the pic of himself using a tripod.

Oct 18, 2010		     Good work on the set up of the scene , catching the smoke curl & getting your subject to sit "v-e-e-w-y" still for the 1s exposure , nice narrative too. TT

Oct 16, 2010		     Thanks for all the nice comments. The shot took a long time to set up, and I have to thank my non-smoking model for sacrificing himself to keep the cigarette burning. I learned a lot about low light while taking shots and checking out the results - had a great time. I did use a tripod Old Finn, as well as a time delay, to ensure there was no camera shake.

Oct 16, 2010		     Did you use a tripod? Nice feeling in the picture and the extra info. In my favorites.

Oct 14, 2010		     Very nicely done. [Edit] Every time I look this "regular" shot looks better and better and becomes almost masterful in its execution. Really, a noticeably superior result!
