 Agh. Thought i'd whip up something fast and try my luck at the collection challenge, but this shot ended up taking more time, than i had planned.

Well, I finally got it set up. Had to use my old ball head on the Manfrotto #055. There's a huge difference between a cheap ball head and a Leitz ball head (well, obviously).

Here's the setup: //koti.mbnet.fi/uuslehto/img/randomcrap/setup.jpg

Taken with the USSR legend: M42 Jupiter9 85mm f/2 adapted to Canon EOS.

Editing steps:
EV, Crop, saturation, vibrance, curves, contrast and such in RSP2006 (Buy one. It's amazing)

I'm so going to have people whining about the picture being too dark, but with my calibrated monitor it looks just fine.

Resizing, USM and borders in Photoshop Elements 2.0 (No need for CS anymore after buying RSP2006)

Wow, nice collection. Its a bit dark but would be difficult to lighten it up. Love the angle of the picture too, really adds to the subjects
