    Team Canon.

    Canon -v- Nikon -v- Others: TEAM CHALLENGE - Week ending 22 Mar 09

    Canon EOS 5D Mark II, EF100mm f/2.8 macro, f/3.5, 1/60th, 430EX II speedlite.

    Huge amount of monkeying about in Photoshop CS4 to try to get rid of a very dark background. (Note to self, hide ugly plants with a plain white sheet.) Bottom left is very white, hiding my good lady wife's hands supporting Elliott.

    Chris, I wouldn't argue with him either!

    Mind you, I'm not sure he can see too well through that fringe.

    Hey, Nikon are catching up this week, I make it Canon 6 entries, Nikon 5, Other 1, unknown 1, so far.

    Nice pictures Chris, well everyone actually, gonna be tough choosing again this Sunday.

    Cheers,

    1/400s @ f5.6, ISO200, equivalent focal length 40mm, but cropped to half that.
    I kept the camera level, shooting the house in the top half of frame so I did not have to correct converging verticals in PP, I think the doorstep was centre of frame as shot. A tricky subject, so check the buildings either side, not perfect I grant, but close enough I hope.

    There was plenty else to do in PP, it took over an hour to get this clean-ish result.

    Click image to see original (1675 x 1832) for the detail, e.g. the date below "Market Cross House".
