Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: The Number 10 (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro
Location: West Jordan, UT
Date: Jul 9, 2006
Aperture: f/18
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/200
Galleries: Macro, Food and Drink
Date Uploaded: Jul 9, 2006

 Stuck 10 "Dots" candies on toothpicks with a black paper backgrond behind them. My son drew the face. Used a studio strobe for illumination. Shot as a macro which required f/18 to get the DOF I wanted.

The crop you see here is straight out of the camera. In fact, except for the frame and some Dodge & Burn and some cloning to get rid of little hairs stuck on the candies, the entire shot is almost straight out of the Raw conversion.
