Should be here in the next few days and then I'm gonna start getting the Ledy photos done. |

| Well it arrived a few hours ago and I'm really impressed at what you get for the price. I only got it out for a quick look as haven't got time to experiment tonight. It's amazing the difference you get from just postitioning the lighting slightly differently.   Will have more of a go at the weekend. |

| Here are a couple of test pictures I took with my new lens I mentioned in the Christmas thread. I'm still working on getting the hang of things. These are some Depth of Field tests. The first picture was taken at f 2.8 with Ben and Darth as the focus point.  This one is 2.2 with the troopers in focus.  and for fun, here is one I took of my wife's birthday cake the other day at f1.8  |

| One of Stu's Landos Feathered and isolated via Photoshop 4 (Not 100% yet as there is a black line to take of the right side of the cape but its a working example)  |

| Nice! Wicked pictures Shawn, that lens has some neat features!
Jay - I really like the figure on the white background and as others have said - for the LL ref part of the site it would look really nice like this, nice sharp figure detail on clear backgrounds |

| Ahar, that does look nice Jay, i sent another besides that one thats better quality (check your email). Looks the ideal way to show a Ledy front and back inside one "card frame", nice touch  |

| Cheers Rob I'm playing about with ideas at the moment and trying to work out how far I can push the different techniques in Photshop 4. Do you have a blank name plate buddy on its own? A few more edits Original  After with raw white background  After with mapped background  After with race track effect  |
