Forgive me for repeating myself throughout each photograph but I'm not expecting you, the viewer, to look at each shot I have taken ... of course I would be delighted if you did.
I diagonally cut a small selection of white pieces of paper and fanned them out. What you see is the shots taken at various apertures, angles and direction of light. I found the simplicity effective and pleasing, I hope you do too? Thank you for taking the time to look at them.
OMG, can't believe how hard this genre was. My white paper refused to come out white on my camera or computer, in fact I have had every colour except white. A very interesting subject this week because I have had to use a lot of different settings on my camera that I have never used before, especially in the white balance and meter settings.
Anyway, what you see is a very small leaf on a very small branch, made using one of my craft punches; and you get an awful lot of hole punches out of a sheet of A4 paper.
Looking forward to viewing every one else's take on this weeks theme and hope you had better luck than me as regards White. HMM.

The beauty and the prisoner... doomed to disappear sooner or
later because unable to really express their feeling. I took this
photo in Brussels not so lond ago and made the sketch as usual.
The composition may look a bit tricky and unusual, because the
model was actually standing in front of a large mirror… You can
view the drawing in progress and a "preparatory picture" at the
following link (on Flickr). Model: Coralie Nelly
If you are interested, here is the trailer of a documentary about
my work filmed by Italian director and producer Davide Gentile.

Final picture in this series, thought blue light (which was actually white LED flashlight from the back) looked nice and I like the shadows cast by the paper on the surface.

Happy Macro Monday

Macro Mondays theme - 'Just White Paper'
I don't know about you, but I found this week's theme very challenging (in a good way)!

For macro Mondays theme "Just White Paper".
This theme was a real challenge for me and a big obstacle, that i could not overcome as i wanted to.
For the Macro Mondays Theme: Just White Paper - HMM - MM
This theme was quite a challenge, because I'm not very creative with paper. Origami is way to difficult (for me). Quilling or cutting paper figures are not my strongest skills as well. So I just kept it simple with something I've learned a long time ago on elementary school...
Thanks for watching!
I haven't done one of these for a while so this is my entry for this week's #flickrfriday – Pen and Paper.
For the Macro Monday Challenge of A Piece Of White Paper.
Lighting Info: SB600 above the subject, SB600 in a DIY grid aimed at background, both triggered by Nikon CLS.
This is a white piece of paper.Behind the paper is a little metal mermaid. It is actually a small drawer handle but the mounting screw is pointing straight back so you don't see it. Behind the mermaid is a bright light creating the silhouette so in fact the white paper is untouched and remains...white

Just white paper - Macro Mondays
This piece of watercolor art paper measured 4" x 6"; the crumpled paper in this photo measures less that 3" wide and 2" high.
Had my first go at origami and made this pair of swans, each measuring approximately 1.5 inches long. Shot at at F6.3 with one extension tube on a Pentax 28-80mm lens, using a softbox and studio light above and to the left. HMM!

Macro Monday: #WhiteOnWhite
Last minute shot for the first MM theme of 2019, "White on White". I knew that I wanted to capture this porcelain swan, but I didn't quite know how... I almost gave up on it, took some photos with other items, when, all of a sudden, I had the last minute idea with the dark "Black Swan" shadow today (of course my "Redux" capture comes to mind..). Actually the porcelain swan is part of a tea egg / ball, but the strainer and small metal chain would have been in the way, so I removed them for the shot. I decided to leave all those small dust particles [the macro shock, each and every time ;-)], signs of use (or rather of not being used really often, that's why it looks so dusty) and the small metal ring the chain and strainer are attached to in the picture (a symbol for breaking the chains of - overcome - conventions?), because I think that they help to convey my idea behind this. Which is? Well, nobody's perfect, and we can't always be the good, positive, always nice and gentle white swan. Sometimes, if we want to get on, spread our wings, develop, grow, we need to bare our teeth, jump at an opportunity. By which I don't mean that we should act in a nasty, ugly or unfair way. I believe in politeness, friendliness, and fairplay. Unfortunately many others don't. So sometimes being (too) nice also means that we will be pushed aside, and we should not let that happen, either.
Technically not perfect, the shadow is not quite centered, but hey, it's Monday and I was running out of time ;-) Processed mostly in Luminar 3 (Accent-AI filter, removed colour cast, enhanced small and medium details) and ON1, where I applied a LUT filter ("Aachen", and used the blending mode "darken" in PS). Length of the porcelain swan: 4,5 cm / 1,77 inches
Weißer Schwan, schwarzer Schwan ...
... unterscheiden sich manchmal gar nicht so sehr, oder?
Ein Foto in allerletzter Minute, heute aufgenommen. Ich wusste zwar, dass ich diesen Porzellan-Schwan (Teil eines Tee-Eis) für das Weiß-auf-Weiß-Thema fotografieren wollte - aber nicht so recht, wie. Ich wollte schon fast die Segel streichen und habe nach anderen Objekten Ausschau gehalten, da kam mir die Idee mit dem "Schwarzer-Schwan-Schatten". Manchmal, wenn wir vorankommen wollen, uns entwickeln wollen, müssen wir eine Gelegenheit beim Schopfe ergreifen und können dabei nicht immer nur nett sein wie der stets herzensgute, selbstlose weiße Schwan. Das soll keineswegs als Lob der Ellbogen-Mentalität gemeint sein, die mir weder liegt und die ich auch überhaupt nicht schätze (viele andere aber eben leider schon). Im Gegenteil, ich schätze höfliche Umgangsformen, Freundlichkeit und Rücksichtnahme sehr und meistens kommt man so auch am allerbesten durch das Leben. Nur manchmal begegnet man Menschen, denen das herzlich egal ist und wenn man sich von solchen Leuten nicht unterbuttern lassen will, muss man halt manchmal auch Zähne zeigen.
Technisch mal wieder nicht perfekt, der Schatten hätte z.B. mittiger gekonnt, und mit Fokus-Stacking wäre wohl auch alles scharf geworden, aber ich war so spät dran heute... Entwickelt überwiegend in Luminar 3. mit dem Accent-AI-Filter, Detail-Verbesserung (klein und mittel), leichtem Nachschärfen und Entfernen des Farbstichs, in ON1 habe ich dann noch einen LUT-Filter ("Aachen") angewendet, den ich in PS mit Abdunkeln überblendet habe. Länge des Tee-Schwans: 4,5 cm
