This is such an amazing concept, and it was played out beautifully. Amazing depth of field, color, lighting, repetition, etc. The only thing that I can find that could be fixed is the green pushpin needs to be a little more centered, but that is not really a major problem. If I was lucky enough to only have that problem, I would be set. Congratulations.

Great Concept Debbie! So how did you do that? #3883064

Debbie Hartley January 28, 2007

Hi Barbara, thank you for your comment. I photographed these push pins in a light tent. I set them up and crawled inside the tent and after a lot of picking the pins up - they kept falling over! - I managed to get a shot I liked. I shot with raw and changed the brightness so the white background appeared whiter. My camera settings were TV 1/40, AV 5.6, ISO 100, and WB-Auto. I used AV priority. #3883300
