Pampered Chef Knife
A client of mine sells knives and has asked me to photograph a few for his online sales. So I am trying a few techniques in practice to see how they come out. This is my second attempt. The first attempt is not worthy of public viewing!!
Strobist info: behind the knife, under the board is a 430ex speedlite with a red gel on it shooting on an angle at the wall. Camera right is an alien bee 800 with a brolly (shoot through umbrella in case I am saying this wrong). Camera left is a 580exii with a yellow gel, this light was originally placed as a rim light. Totally the wrong spot for it and did not get what I wanted, but the oranges picked up the light slightly and I was happy with that. The speedlites were fired by the Canon ste2 and the alien bee by wire.
I worked on this image in photoshop cs6. I created the vignette manually with a black paint brush at 40% opacity. I ran it through nik sharpener and I believe one other treatment that I can't remember right now.
