I guess my file was too big so I converted it to a .gif and will try it again.
If it doesn't work this time, either I'm doing something wrong, or someone simply doesn't want me posting????????

Hey, thats great ronmatt! [righton]
Very nice attention detail, except for the shadow. You have the same prob I had with my camera; it looks too flat. It's kinda hard to get it just right, but I think you could strech the shadow out a bit to give the camera some depth.
Besides that it's increadible! [righton]

Thanks for the input. Somewhere in my files, or maybe it's been copied to disk, I have an updated version of this image where I did just as you suggested and placed it into a different background. I'll find it and show you.

The detail on the camera is unbelievable!
What Patrick said "You have the same prob I had with my camera; it looks too flat. It's kinda hard to get it just right, but I think you could strech it out a bit yo give the camera some depth" is right.
See attached a poorly adjusted stretch I did of the zoom lens.

Both the left and right side of the camera can't be 100% above the camera. If the 100% above (target) is on the left the zoom, because it is round, would be seen at a small but increasing bow as it stretches out away from the target veiw.

My stretch might be a little much but hopefully the idea isn't lost.

Great detail...I wouldn't even attempt to make it. Way beyond my PS skills.

Oh, accually I was talking about the shadow, lasa. But your right about the stretch lens part too.

ronmatt

just thought I'd show you how I ended up using this visual. All of your critiques were valid. Fortunately, as you can see, in some cases they were almost too technical to worry about 'in this case'. But it did indicate one "BIG" thing to me, which I appreciate. I was getting sloppy. In the business I'm in, I can't afford to get SLOPPY. Thanks for the input.

That looks great, ronmatt. You're a fine artist (as well as technically skilled) and it's a pleasure to have your input in these forums. [righton]
