 This photo was pretty simple. Used a standard desk lamp for my controlled lighting and color, folded a crane, and used another plain white piece of paper for background.

I wanted to shoot a photo I felt was good enough to not need to edit, but I did not feel this one was quite right. So I adjusted the contrast a little and took out a little red.

Very creative, this is a nice shot. I like the composition and the placement of the oragami. There would be a hundred different placements but this one works well. The lighting is great I really like what you did here. The shadows are sharp in some points and soft in others. Your focus works well here also. Not too sharp and not too soft. Very nice shot. keep up the good work.

Nice composition. Seems more like sidelighting than it does backlighting.

Nice image - Nice soft lighting - Not too sure on the tone though.

That's a mighty squat crane... most of them I have seen and made have the tail and head folded an additional time inward to make them more slender and graceful. However, it's still a fantastic shot.
