“Caribbean Splash”
This tropical lady was painted with a Nikon D300, using a Nikkor 105mm f/2.8D IF-ED macro lens, and a 20mm extension tube.
Image Solution:
focal length @ 105mm / exposure mode @ aperture priority / in camera matrix metering / 1/250sec. - f/32 / exposure comp @ -0.7EV / ISO @ 640 / white balance @ custom profile, using an Expo disk for color calibration / AF - Mode @ manual / color space @ sRGB / lighting solution - Nikon R1C1 wireless close up speedlight system; both light units set to minimum fill flash with a wide dispersal pattern and attached diffuser. / tone comp @ +1 degree / hue adjustment @ +2 degrees / saturation factor @ +2 degrees / support platform - tripod assist, with macro focusing rail, and remote electronic trigger release /
I found my eye pleasantly wandering through all the variations of violet and magenta, yet repeatedly being drawn to the center of the blossom. The centered compositon is fine with me, too.
As I'm new to this forum, I hope you haven't already answered this question a zillion times: In your tech notes you list the color space as sRGB - are you referring to your original capture, or the posted image?
