Christmas CapturedCopyright 2009 Matt Mortensen
The decorations are still up so what the heck! One more Christmas image to post before I let the holiday season go until next year. This photograph is of a festive snowglobe that belongs to my mother. It has been in the family a really long time and I think this composition doe a great job preserving the keepsake for eternity. The lighting is what really sets this image apart. The setup is two lights, one constant light from above and another wireless flash from the rear and set back a distance to fill the whole galss sphere evenly. After image capture I adjusted the hue of the flash lit regions to remove some blue and sharpened up the tree a little in Photoshop. Enjoy!
