Paua in Silver

This is a photo I posted in January, I have added it to the 15 May Friday TL Archive theme

I spent a lot of time working on this image and was pleased with the results.

I liked how the silver of my ring stands out from the silver, and how it 'floats' on the black background.

January Notes

I was playing around with a photo I had taken of my paua ring, using the perspective tool on photoscape I changed the angle. Then I flipped the image so I had a mirror version.
On photofilter I copy and pasted the 2 images together onto a black BG.
Cropped and signed.

Thanks for looking
regards
Tracey

This one does jump out from the gallery, Tracey. It shows imaghination in concept and skill in pp work - reminds me of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon album cover.

Interesting use of Photoshop, a nice abstract - well lit and observed.

It would be nice to see you do this same trick but actually use a mirror and see how well you can recreate the shot.

Hi Tracey
This is a beautiful silver paua ring. And it does look so good here. Very abstract-looking, and the black certainly makes it stand out.
Well done
Janice

PS The paua colours against the silver look great

it look like a part of some butterfly!
shooting a ring is not so easy and here with the macro it make a wonderfull one; preaps some jewellmaker cann propose you somme work!(just without the black part in the middel it will bee better)

Striking image, with modern design appeal and strong visual impact. I like the crisp clarity and the mirrored effect, all accentuated nicely by the black background. Well done:)

hello tracey,
I like the way you have crteated an interesting graphic from you ring. The black helps the ring to stand out. However, I see spots of white in the centre black part and wonder if you saw these and meant them to stay or whenther they would be best cloned out? But nonetheless a skilled piece of work.
regards,
Bev
