Gallery: Macro & Close-upPosted April 26, 2014547 views4 comments
A cluster of handsome red tomatoes and crisp green stocks that I purchased at a local market while house-sitting out in California.

Shot as a stock photo.

NIKON D700
105.0 mm f/2.8
Natural light
1/5 sec; f/14; ISO 100
Manual focus; Spot metering

Experimenting with rear focus.

Processed in CS5 Camera Raw with a curves adjustment.

Thank you for viewing and leaving C&C.

Cheers,

Carol

Hi Carol
Dramatic pic of an every day subject indeed ! Well seen. My only minor nit - the large logo :razz:
Easily fixed.
Cheers

Will make a fine stock image, Carol. I like the comp and point of focus. Nice lighting and bold colors, too.
