Steven Roberts Online Image Upload: Off #293: Whats inside? I have some really old Silver that I haven't looked at in a very long time. These pieces are very tarnished but very retro to me. Opening this egg shaped piece gave me a very big suprise as to the beauty still left inside. Its originally a piece that you open to put candy or other goodies in for a party. Hope you like. (Endre, I to have some cool stuff stashed away) Steve R May 06, 2008 at 08:00 PM

Steven Roberts Online Image Upload: Off #293: Whats inside? Heres a shot of the entire thing for a better reference. Steve R May 06, 2008 at 08:01 PM

Hightraxx Offline Image Upload: Off #293: Whats inside? I like the second better, it goes with your story about it, the first one you can't really tell what it is, I would of used used more depth of field and got everything in focus something so pretty needs to be shown off. Good luck this week. Norm May 06, 2008 at 11:11 PM

Steven Roberts Online Image Upload: Off #293: Whats inside? Norm, I did try exactly what you were saying. Problem I had was so many focal points to focus on that I found it difficult to get the right angle of it while not showing to much background. I to liked the second one, but clarity wise, the first I went with. Still torn. Thanks as always. Steve R May 06, 2008 at 11:21 PM

Beverly Guhl Offline Image Upload: Off #293: Whats inside? Steve, what a beautiful treasure, and photographed so nicely! Retrolicious! (I might have cropped a little more off the top on the first one to really focus on the detail of the central piece.) May 07, 2008 at 03:35 AM

Steven Roberts Online Image Upload: Off #293: Whats inside? Bev, Love the new words!! I see what you mean, but I only have a few minutes to make that change and can't get it in at this second. Guess it will have to do. Glad you like it. Steve R May 07, 2008 at 03:42 AM

Tamara Lambert Offline Image Upload: On #293: Whats inside? I think the tarnish makes it so much more interesting. Nice job! May 07, 2008 at 05:30 AM

Strad Offline Image Upload: On #293: Whats inside? Fascinating shot, Steve! I like both shots for different reasons. Had it been my photo I think I might have backed off on the second one a little more so as to get the entire object in the frame. You then might have tried using a high aperture number like f 22 to get everything in focus. As long as you keep the light on your subject but keep the black background in shadow it should come out with a dark black. Either way, it's a very interesting photo. Good work. All best wishes, Endre May 07, 2008 at 05:52 AM

All best wishes, Endre Endre, thanks for the tip. I didn't take much time with the shot as I only had like an hour to make it happen. I will have to try what you were saying because there were many times I didn't know how to make what you suggested happen. Its to late to mess with this shot but I will certainly remember for the next one. Thanks as always. Steve R May 07, 2008 at 11:42 AM
