Assignment: Textures and Colors - “Spring Parasol”

Techs: A close-up +4 diopter lens was used to get close to this lovely lady.

The image was painted with a Nikon D2x; using a Nikkor AF-S DX Zoom 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED.

Image Solution:
focal length @ 50mm / exposure mode @ aperture priority / 1/250sec. - f/16 / exposure comp @ -0.3EV / ISO @ 320 / white balance @ auto. / AF - mode @ manual / metering mode - combination of in camera matrix metering, and hand held spot meter, sampling three anchor points, for balanced light distribution. / color space @ sRGB / lighting solution - Nikon R1C1 wireless close up speedlight system; both light units set to ¼ lumen burst with a wide dispersal pattern, and corresponding attached diffusers. / tone comp @ +0 degree / hue adjustment @ +1 degree / saturation factor @ +2 degrees / support platform – tripod assist, with macro focusing rail, and a cable trigger release /

Comments greatly appreciated...:cool:
