Advertisement Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Hi robert_parker, Take a look here Dark Chinese 3. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Iduna Posted November 20, 2015 Share #2 Posted November 20, 2015 Robert, this is a most difficult light situation. You mastered that problem very well. The man with just one lightseam is great. There is still texture in the dark part which is astonishing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwpics Posted November 20, 2015 Share #3 Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) Lovely image - maybe reduce the highlights a little on the food? Gerry Edited November 20, 2015 by gwpics 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry Iduna and Gerry, thank you for your kind comments - I have begun to realise that I need to work on my photoshop skills, people are often surprised when I explain that most of my images are straight out of the camera with a little cropping or sharpening. I'll do some work on the concept of 'layers' and see if that doesn't do the trick... Edited November 20, 2015 by robert_parker Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmans Posted November 20, 2015 Share #5 Posted November 20, 2015 I like the image Robert...good overall sense of 'what is occurring here?"... I would do some light work on the lighting, perhaps 'burn' the food a bit....:-) Nice going though, jim 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

XVarior Posted November 21, 2015 Share #8 Posted November 21, 2015 Yeah, intriguing and menacing movie-style shot. You could expect something bad happening any moment. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert_parker Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share #10 Posted November 21, 2015 Yeah, intriguing and menacing movie-style shot. You could expect something bad happening any moment. I was pleased that the shot has a certain mood to it - for the record the gentleman in the photo broke out into a big smile and we exchanged a few pleasant words before moving on.

Louis Posted November 21, 2015 Share #11 Posted November 21, 2015 Robert, with your permission, I played a little with your excellent shot to see what I can get, but details are unfortunately washed away in the highlights!

Thanks Louis - I think I'll have to go back to the original image and see what can be done 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
