Interesting. lol

On another note. Do you have the "un murky" photo. I think it may look better showing all of the variant types of red as they naturally are with their accompanies shadows instead of the muddy/murky reddish brown look. With that much red, surely they are different tones of red....which I think might add to it, as it would all still be technically red, just different red. Right now it really looks like you just used a red bulb or overlaid red in photoshop...which is why I commented like I did in my first post.

I think natural reds as they are would go over much better.

my toughts anyway.

I wasn't looking for it for evidence sake, but for tonal coverage of the different reds. I think it would be more interesting, I reallly don't care for that washed muddy look in first one.

See, I like this better. While I still hold it's not a great shot....I like it more than the original because you can see variances of the reds...I only wish there was more, darker reds, lighter reds, etc etc.

anyway, it's interesting so thanks for sharing.

You have two different tempurature light sources too....I find myself wondering what this would look like in a totally dark room using strobes, 2 placed in different places. Since you can set it up easily enough, might be a fun experiment.
