 First time using my soft box I ordered last year! I was trying to come up with something original for lenscap but had been drawing a blank all week. Then I thought of still life but my daughter only had one apple left, can't do much with that so then I put the lens cap on the apple, yeah, yeah, *YAWN* BORING!!! But then my son came in from the store and put the broken sunglasses on the table. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmm, just a second, I have some thumbtacks around here somewhere, yep, now what for a mouth? A ring of course! And there you have it. Used my lightsphere for my light source! :)

Process:

Cropped
Duplicate level
gaussian blur 30/50
adjustment layer hue/saturation
adjusted red/yellow/blue
adjustment layer levels
adjustment layer curves
flatten image
USM
resize for web
There you have it! :)

Funny. The cap looks a bit washed out.

Great work while artist, sculptor, etc... You got a really wonderful light here. The subject don´t catch me in any ways. It´s not interesting to me but I apreciate you dedication and inspiration to build this, and the light you used to.

Cleaver idea with good execution except harsh lighting gives annoying glare on "nose" and "mouth".

hahaa... lol, how cute... such creativity, I love it. maybe a little more negative space around the edges could really make this stand out, I like your centered composition with the glasses going out to either side, nice work
