Juice-O-Mat
Mamiya C3, Sekor 105mm, f9 1/250
Got confused about how to compensate for exposure in close-ups when the bellows are extended. Instead of going 1.5 stops up, I went down, and this is underexposed.
It was a tough exposure task anyhow, with that very bright backdrop. I tried to compensate by pointing a floor lamp at the juicer while holding up a large white envelope to try to reflect some more light (my fiancee was probably reconsidering the marriage when she saw me), but it didn't make much of a difference.
I tried to fix it a bit with processing, but it just got real noisy real quick. But heck, at least my loyal little juicer got to star in a photo shoot!
