Hi, my name Is Laszlo. I'm shooting macro for 5 years now. I'm trying to improve my photography and PS skills every day (my job and my kids leave me with almost no time for this).

Hello Laszlo!
Welcome to Macroderie Community!

You made a nice entry with a very beautiful photo! Excellent technically!

I was looking at it, thinking how you managed to light the subject. Then I read that you used 2 diffused flashes!
We are looking forward to share with us your work!

What really impressed me was the WB of the subject. Although it is lighten with flash it has the same colour tone as the rest of the image.

What really impressed me was the WB of the subject. Although it is lighten with flash it has the same colour tone as the rest of the image.

The image was taken with ISO 125 and 1/200 s. The flash was really dialed down (1/64 maybe).

The rest was post processing (see my RAW conversion settings if anyone is interested ). The rest was PS work (dodge&burn, some contrast and brightness adjustments and local exposure corrections).

Thank you the heartwarming words everyone!
