A Fly's Eye!

Paul Iddon

This is from last year - I have just reworked a new file of this fly. I just can't wait for them to start lining up modelling for me in the coming weeks again. I have decided to enter this into the last round of the digital projected competition for the camera club, hopefully the "in your face" view will do me OK (some judges like macro, some don't have a clue, I just hope I get lucky!)


C&C as always appreciated. This will have been 3 extension tubes on the Siggy 105.

good focus and composition,
but colour /brightness look a bit unatural looking for some reason?

how much alteration did you do?

GOLDENORFE

colour/contrast looks ok,

did you alter saturation/contrast ? looks completly different to original

Paul Iddon

Don't think so - but it may have been as part of using the high pass filter in an overlay layer...
