2/365 Ace of spades

A piece of creative photoshop work :)

The original photo was taken with the card held up by some blue-tack and lit by a single stobe with a DIY mini softbox on it and a relefector. this sounds like fancy (kinda) lighing but it's really just even lighting with out specular high lights :)

 

In photoshop i messed with the levels for complete white and black. Then i did some lighting effects and copyed that layer then gave it a 180 degrees spin for that cool red background. then a made about ten copys of the card layer and spin them using free transform. and finally lowed the opacity of the equally for the spiny effect. :)

 

The original photo was taken with the nikon D40 kit lens (18-55mm)
