About the Image(s)

I shot this image with my Olympus Em1 mark III with the 60 mm macro lens. Set on a tripod, put the camera to Live Composite mode, did light painting in Live composite mode, processed in Lightroom and Photoshop.

I have not heard of Live Composite mode, but after looking it up, I see that it is a feature for Olympus. Your shallow depth of field worked well on this image and I find the tones very appealing. All of your post-processing paid off. This is an interesting close-up.   Posted: 10/09/2025 15:56:16

This shot of the watch face feels sleek and high-end. The blue tones and reflections add a futuristic edge, making the texture and craftsmanship really stand out.   Posted: 10/21/2025 13:13:44

I really like your image Nelson, and love how you experimented with the Live Composite mode. I also had to look up what it was! This is an interesting image, with lovely toning.   Posted: 10/23/2025 03:07:25
