And I think that's worth an 8. |
Thanks so much for the feedback it is very helpful. I am quite new to this and am improvising with lighting, I actually used a small led torch pointed at the brush head hence the harsh light and wouldnt even think to diffuse it as you suggested. The only other light was from the computer screen. It did come close to the look I wanted but due to inexperience I just couldnt figure out how to make it better. So your comments have definately helped. Much appreciated. :) |
