My Challenge 70 thread

Bendr

So i'm working on challenge 70, and I thought, hmm, what could I do that would be out of the box... So I came up with this



EXIF

I have a few other ideas that I want to try, but they havn't been taken yet...

Hi Ben, great idea, but I think it could be a little brighter to show more contrast, so its a double whammy . Try adding more contrast?? And can you crop the bottom off, just above the little noisy stuff.

the top of the photo looks like there was a mistake when the camera wrote it to the memory card. so I might retake it with a little more focus and clarity.
agreed with the contrast (mentioned above)
and I don't know if this was part of your idea, but maybe just a tad bit of dusting? kinda distracting to me.

alrighty, thanks for the advice...

I cleaned it up a little, and cropped the top to get this...



EXIF

I'm still trying to work on the brightness/contrast. I also tried to reshoot it and came up with this


EXIF

Thanks again,
Ben

I like the one above the black and white one best clap

Bendr

Thanks for the comments all!

Nalvarez: It's a picture of the contrast knob on an old tv

nice work

mr peas

man that is hard to shoot. i like the bokeh youre trying to apply to the photo. i wouldnt just try to get a shot of the word though, try getting a shot of the entire guitar somewhere with full of light, maybe outside! get playful, dont stick with just one part of the guitar. good luck!

Bendr
