When the brightest time of the day is not enough...

Kui päeva kõige valgem hetk pole piisav fotode tegemiseks, siis tuleb appi võtta tehisvalgus.
Kuna osalen seekordsel Vintage Tallinn vol.5, siis plaanisin teha spetsiaalselt ühe uue seeria kõrvarõngaid. Et oleks miskit värsket pakkuda. Aga jäin jänni pildistamisega... Kõrvarõngastes on ehtekive, helmeid/pärleid ja seemnehelmeid. Päevavalguses tegin pilte ning ükski ehtekivi ei säranud. Nagu neid polekski seal :( Nii ma siis proovisin täna seda teist varianti.

Toon mõned näited fotodena. Vasakul fotod päevavalgusega ning paremal tehisvalgusega. Ja just kõrvarõngad selliste ehtekividega, millel on eriviimistlused, sest need on alati trikikad. Kartsin, et tehisvalgus moonutab helmeste ja kristallide värvi. Seda õnneks ei juhtunud. Kuid... metall on kuidagi rohkem pronks kui vask... Kuid kumb antud variantidest on siis parem?

Siin on kasutatud Preciosa ehtekive Sahara, mis otsevaates on hallikassinised, küljelt aga kuumavad rohelised, oranzikate sähvatustega.
Here are Preciosa Sahara stones used. They are greyish blue viewing from the front, but throw bright green and even orange flashes.

Siin on Preciosa Vitrail Medium kristallid, nende värvigamma on nagu arbuusil - rohekad ja roosad.
Here are Preciosa Vitrail Medium crystals that have a watermelon colors - green and pink.

Need kõrvarõngad on Swarovski White Opal Star Shine kividega, mille mahedat beebisinist värvust elavdab soe kollane kuma.
This pair of earrings features Swarovski White Opal Star Shine crystals with baby blue and warm yellow shine.


When brightest time of the day is not enough for photographing, it's time for using artificial light.
Since I take part from Vintage Tallinn vol.5 I planned to make a brand new series of earrings . So I could offer something new. But I got stuck with photographing... These earrings have rhinestones, beads/pearls and seedbeads. Photos made in daylight didn't show almost any sparkle from the rhinestones. Like there wasn't any :( So today I tried the other way.

Here are some photo samples. On the left with photos made in daylight and on the right with photos made in artificial light. I chose those earrings that have rhinestones with special effects because these are always trickier to capture. I was afraid that artificial light will change the color of beads and crystals. Fortunately it didn't happen. But... metal parts look like they were bronze instead of copper... So which option here is better way to go?
