A bar graph using pennies. The crash at the end symbolizes what the markets are currently going through.
A huge thanks to my wife for having the steady hand and patience to stack those pennies. I tried a few times unsuccessfully!
A peice of bristol board provided the background. A studio light was off to the left to give a nice yellowish shine to the pennies. An SB-800 with a shoot through umbrella was off to the right that hit the whole picture with a soft but bright light. An SB-600 was to the rear and left dialed down to give that bit of a shadow coming off of the 'graph'.
Editting was mostly done in Lightroom. Cropped, slight rotation, sharpened, temperature and colour adjustments. Final resize and Unsharp Mask done in The GIMP.
