Magnets

This photo was taken using natural light from an east facing window without any direct sunlight. I used small magnetic balls shaped into cylinders which I placed at different distances from the camera to try to show the different bokeh effects on my lens. The magnets were placed on a sheet of shiny black acrylic with a matt black fabric backdrop.

This photo was taken directly from the raw image the only processing it has had is a little cropping, noise reduction and a little sharpening, no adjustments were made to the exposure.
