 Existing flourescent lights only. Cam tethered to Laptop in LiveView mode, shot using EOS Utility.

Shot was still a little dark after conversion so I threw a 50% opacity/Normal blend Xero-Graphics Illustrator plug-in level on top. Illustrator plug-in is designed for doing hard lines and lighting for book type illustrations but is fun for other appications as well.

After the fact: That earthquake that shook the LA area really messed with my wall of shame, I'm a left handed Virgo so crooked things hanging on wall makes me crazy. Note to Self, self take laser level to work tomorrow.

I had to laugh when I read that your cam was tethered to the laptop. From the last SP side challenge, I though YOU were tethered to your office! :) I like the hat! :)

Har.. nice job trying to look serious with that thing on in front of all those crooked pictures! Eep! (I also am a left-handed Virgo.) I do like the composition, which seems to be happening at the point of a triangle made by your laptap, your award, and your goofy hat. Interesting.

Great shot Andy. A superb look into your workstation/office and its surroundings. Great focus, as mentioned, and amazing dof.

Looks great to me - but sorry to hear about the quake... Those things really mess with me - one of the reasons I left SoCa! ;-) Amazing focus & color. You're really good...
