Really well done - when I shot it I was rushed and I'm not thrilled with the results - any pointers on lighting?
Why, thanks.
No good pointers, sorry -- I took the board to the porch late afternoon under a cloudy sky, no extra light was added :/ For in-door product photography I would start w/ two lamps left & right betw. the subject and the camera and see how that goes. I did a bit of post-processing w/ LightRoom on these (always take raw pictures !
) :
- white balanced to the 18% grey patch of the GretagMacbeth color chart
- lens profile correction active
- medium contrast tone curve
- exposure comp. to +.5 or so
- clarity (local contrast) set to 30
- sharpening to 55, mask to 70
- straightened and cropped
- export sharpening for screen, normal
- export re-size to 1024 on the short edge
