plastic rose

photobug · Sep 18, 2004

Well, it's a real rose, but it turned out sorta molded plastic looking for some reason.

This is a flash shot, so that probably has a lot to do with it. I'm not sure I like the effect. It's cool in a weird sort of way, but it isn't very realistic.

That is weird how it turned out plastic like. Well, regardless of the plastic look I think it's a cool looking picture in a weird sort of way...as you put it.

I also like the DOF used along with the darker lighting in the background.

It's one of those where you didn't get what you wanted so don't like it. But because we don't know what it looked like in the first place or what you wanted it to look like, we've got nothing to judge it against. So we like it. :lol:

And, erm, I like it.

I like way you've shown the stalk of the rose. Lots would have cut that out.

Oh, I like it, it's just... weird, in an alien invasion sort of way. :lol:

Turns out I had the flash set to full power in manual mode instead of on auto. Sort of over powered the ambient light.

Should have put this in Bloopers I guess.
