Fantastic capture and texture

Excellent tweaking...I love photos like this !

Beautiful capture!!! I love that bright tonal range. It looks almost IR like. Excellent indeed!!! #:o)

Ever since the new toy, you have begun to look at things a little differently and this is reflected in your work. Like all new toys, it also takes time to fully understand its functions and make full use of them to ones own desire and vision. The photograph has much potential, but it suffers some from not having been properly exposed as the highlights are blown out, due to over exposure compensation. I feel that if you were to have exposed for the highlights and upper mid-range, then the image would have been too dark. This is were a soft fill flash would have come in useful. The settings should have been very low to medium, depending upon distance, so that one does not create an artificial shadow. This would mean taking sever exposures with different flash settings and having the camera on a tripod. Thank you for sharing. Egmont
