Closeup of T45C Goshawk Navy Trainer aircraft canopy, showing detail of Canopy Destruct system (the sharply-angled lines near the longitudinal center of the canopy) which consists of a ribbon explosive. This system shatters the canopy immediately prior to pilot ejection.
Strobist Sundays -- specular highlights
[gonna recycle an old shot. no time to shoot a new one this week. sorry.]
A combination of slow shutter speed, a flash and a couple warm, bright CFLs...oh, and marbles in motion. The surface they are on is textured, semi-gloss black....really!
Closeup of flower with Fuji X10. Crop from center of moderately larger image. One annoyance is that you can't use flash with extreme closeup - makes sense for the built in flash since the lens blocks it, but annoying you can't have a flash in the hot shoe in that situation.
Canon flash in hotshoe, bounced behind and to the side of flower.

Using photoshop + Wacom Intous4 + Lightroom 3
No fast smudging, no clay editing, the edit was pixel by pixel to be sure of maintaing the actual skin and hair texture.
This is my first time using Wacome Intous4 instead of a mouse, AND YES it is a big different.
The color tone was manipulated with Lightroom Vibrance and saturation
I will write about the entire retouching experience soon in my blog
