Impressive shot. I like your technique of allowing the foreground to fade into a darker and darker background. Did you do this by creative lighting or via Photoshop? Bob Williams |

A little bit of each of the above. I waited till the background was shaded, used a fairly wide open lens (f5.6) to get a reasonably shallow depth of field. Then in Paint Shop Pro, I used the curves adjustment to further darken the background, plus a little gamma adjustment. |

I don't understand what 'gamma adjustment' is, it's on my prog but I've never used it. Mary |

When you use it, contrast and brightness or darkening is done with that one step. It is a way of controlling the two I believe. It seems to be that way with irfanview under image, enhance colors..... |
