A good early morning at the home of a friend and fellow fans met four madmen behind our cameras trying to get a still life moderately acceptable.
When one has not mastered a subject such as still life, it is best to start by picking simple elements:
such an empty bottle of wine, but in different ways and, as we are in spring and is on hand, a twig with flowers and a few green ojas to balance a bit with the tone of the bottle ...
the background of a simple white paper crumpled and the only light (almost uniform) the proviente of a window type these buardilla roof.
All very simple and therefore also the resulting image would be. This is the image without any treatment that left my camera:
still life I wanted a simple yes, but with something more than life and with some kind of warm lighting but with some contrast and claw ... But we had no flashes or spots or any kind of proper lighting for it.
already in previous posts on this blog I said something about creative lighting ADOBE CAMERA RAW.Es something I recommend. In fact almost all my pictures are treated first in ACR (some exclusively) before going to photoshop. So with a touch of the adjustment brush and gradient tool again using different tones and applying a vignette and a touch of curves, the image "raw" I got this:
Once "enlightened " still life and I can only go to Photoshop to apply a background blur, a couple of adjustment layers and filter warm tone photograph.
The result, somewhat pictorial, is the image of the beginning .. I personally do not dislike when compared with the original (the second). Well, I hope you enjoy this second still. I have much to learn, but I promise to improve, lol.
