Tired Eyes Redo
I haven't touched the camera for a fortnight, stuck indoors because of lack of money so I thought I would redo an old favourite. Is it better or am I getting worse.

Plus Layers
Levels 4-1.14-237 Out 0-255

Re: Tired Eyes Redo
The top one is the redo; I should have looked at the old one first. You see I can't tell until I see both on the same page, that is why I like doing comparisons. Ah but the old one must have been a lot closer.

I like the second image better. One gets closer to the book and to the mathematics-it is closer to the "mind". But I'm a mathematician!

I think you are right Karlos; actually now I remember you are supposed to see through the glasses, I can crop the first to near the second because it is massive, over 5000 pixels on the long side, but I don't think it is ever going to be as good. cheers

Re: Tired Eyes Redo
Keep trying to get that feeling on a much higher resolution so that I will be able to sell it as stock, and keep failing or have I. The paperback above cost about £70 for three in the 1980's and it is a bit hard too understand so I chose a Fresher set book and a famous charming theorem to be a distraction instead. Don't know if I will ever manage the same as the above without being the exact same.

Re: Tired Eyes Redo
Actually I forgot: a famous charming (theorem) Lemma about mathematical structure. A Lemma is a sort of a theorem that is used to prove a theorem, it all depends on context.
I noticed some strange visual objects, looking like reflections, strange and I can't explain them. I thought it it would be nice to have some opinion, I think maybe the smaller paperback and glossy pages lose a bit, the glasses at an angle, but it is carefully placed in focus using live view x5, the light is spot on and in the direction of the camera, and a white reflector gives a little definition to the front which I later darkened in PP.
On my display, I can see all the pages although some are 1 in a black point test.
