lime – photoblog of a fruit

Location:

At home, Ipswich

The Setup:

Lui made some cookies for James' last day at work. These are 1st Gen iPod Nanos.

The camera & lens:

Camera: Canon EOS 400D DIGITAL
@ 30/1mm
Exposure: 1/100" @ f/28/10, ISO 1600

Post processing:

Lightroom -

1. Noise reduction: luminance +50
2. Lens profile correction: manual - vertical +15 - to try to correct the bad top-down perspective
3. Curves: lights +20, darks -5
4. Presence: clarity +100

The wash-up:

The top down perspective is a big unnatural. I tried to correct somewhat in post, but it stretched out the bottom cookies a bit too much.

What do you think?

All constructive criticism is welcome! Please let me know what you think, and what you don't like about the picture. Everything is on the table, including the setup, equipment used, and the post processing. Nothing is off-limits and I'm always eager to learn!
