Deep Light by

Deep Light in the Cellar. London, UK.
Bottles captured in my cellar. It’s a dark, damp, dusty place, full of cobwebs.
Camera Nikon D700 with 105mm Sigma Macro Lense.
ISO 100, Seven Combined Exposures ranging from 5 sec to 30secs. Bottles were lit by torch, f/6.3.
Photomanipulation Seven different exposures edited in PS5. Using layer masks to hide and reveal differently lit aspects of the bottles, brickwork and cobwebs. I liked how the light produced a blue highlight on the cobwebs. Layers flattened and an edge texture applied.
