Primary Colours ~ Blue

Ooooh! I think I'm going to have even more fun with smoke than water!

The makeshift studio this time was the ironing board, a black tee-shirt hung behind, an incense stick and my Cobra 700AF flashgun and filters off-camera (works with the new camera - result)!

First in a new series (bet you can't guess what the others might be) inspired by this much finer example by Jenny...

Wasn't the image I wanted to put up. I composited all three (damn, I've just given the game away, haven't I) in CorelDraw but it wouldn't let me load without being moderated (anyone know if/how I can retain the metadata to allow me to load these; looked but couldn't see anything) and since I didn't know how long that would take and it being late enough (again) I decided to compromise and go with the single colour for today.

Hope you like it.

Update on my exif issue.

Simple really and I feel so stupid at not realising this sooner. To composite, I export a 16-bit tiff of each raw image I want to use out of LR3 and while I always used one of these images as the base for the composite in PPX5 I was using "save as..." so as to preserve the original tiff as well as create the composite. This retained some exif date information but lost the all important "Date Taken" which of all the metadata dates must be the one used by BP.

Just tried it and if I just "save" the image it retains the exif belonging to that tiff. Of course I lose the original tiff, but then again, so what... if I need another, I just need to export the RAW again. D'Oh!
