Scale 1
 |
|
| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
This old scale has been sitting around our house for years. I think my wife got it as a wedding present some 12 years ago. There's not telling how old it really is. We always liked the rust patina and thought it would be a good subject to photograph, but have never gotten around to it before.
Tonight I had to take something of value. It has been about a week and a half since I've taken anything of note.
For this shot, I had one light on level with the face of the scale and to the right of the image. I had my handy-dandy black backdrop behind and underexposed.
Only post-processing in Photoshop was an adjustment layer for contrast, set to 45% opacity (no adjustment in the dialog box) and resizing.
Please critique honestly,

This is terrific. The sharpness, light, composition, background, focus ... what else ... oh, the subject! I love this old scale.
You want an honest critique? This is a terrific photo and I wish I'd taken it.
