Version 2.
I went a bit closer in a slightly different angle. Had to use a longer lens, because I wouldn\'t want to burn my dear old 85
Modified the fillstrobe a tad by creating a barndoor slit with a piece of cardboard,
and added a maclite to highlight the blade (might have overdone that)
Slightly longer exposure for the sparkles and about one Fstop smaller
Also added a bit more symmetry
Tried to keep the original coloring and feel, but added a bit more drama, with help of a goldreflector
Let me know if it improved -or not-
Thanks all for the comments and tips!
RT.
Version Final.
Some last PP modifications
Thanks to all who helped in this image,
Special thanks to Mike for his Masterclasses!
