[LRFlex] Re: A Greek still life (with flowers )

Thanks Aram,
It's a typical Scandinavian Schnapps or Aquavit glass, about 12cm high
(4-5 inches), funny even after 30 years here I can still guess the inches with reasonable accuracy, but still have to measure the centimetres.
Printed out at DIN A4 size both versions look quite stunning.

I'm working on the RAW file again to try and get a bit more definition into the base of the glass, quite promising so far, but still not quite right.

cheers
Douglas

Very nice. Great exposure. I personally like the full frame. The cropped version, while showing off the flower more, it leaves me wondering about the glass vase. My first thought when I saw the blue bands is rubber bands around the glass. I knew that was wrong, but that is what it made me think. I think the full frame printed very large would be best. Just my thoughts on the subject.

Carrying on the latest trend of posting flowers (I think we now post
more flowers than Interflora).

A small still life in Greek national colours, Kalimera Peter K. and all
you Hellenophiles out there.

German Flowers stolen fresh this morning from the next door neighbour's
garden (they're on holiday in Greece and we're house sitting), and the
glass isn't Greek either, possibly Danish.

I admit to having done quite a bit of Photoshopping on this one.

Comments please, should I leave it full frame or is the crop more effective?
