I always want to try the Special Technique that Bryan Peterson wrote in his book, Understanding Exposure. This help in darkening the background. I always wonder how they focus on a macro by darkening the background. Well, here it is, my first try.

My first reading was at SS125, this show all the shadows and tones, the white balance is blue but you can always fix that, you just need the balance reading, I then deliberately underexpose it by picking SS640. Thus, the result. Didn't do much on photoshop but just adjust a tad on the exposure to -1.0 but thats about it. I intend to do a dramatic shadow, with just focusing on the Ribbon and the hazel eyes.

Thanks for looking and HHCC on this. BTW, I bought the Photoshop CS2 by Scott Kelby. I'm just reading it right now and its 3am, got up and read a bit, I need to get back to bed.

Good Morning, Peas!
