Surly interesting and eye-catching original scene. I put emphasis on creating a sense of patina and catching of the moment.

I love the image and the idea. My only crit would be that the card stands too perffectly straight, would like it if the card was cock eyed. Just a suggestion.

Nice work, but I would increase the Depth of Field significantly, . . . I can't tell what's going on except that some bullet has gone through something. . .

Improve the lighting by finding a light source, if it's the sun, I would move it to another angle, (or the camera to another angle) so that the ligth isn't lighting the whole visible side of the bullet.

I'm used to seeing copper coated bullets, so a steel one or whatever seems odd. . . and if you meant for it to be lead (which wouldn't be full metal jacket then) it would be darker.

anyway, post again if you change anything.

this is a good opinion.... I will be thinking about it....

I long time looking for and testing a few methods of lighting....
I needed flash light efect looking still. (high speed photograph)
sorry for stupidity englis.... :rolleyes:

Nice, increase the DOF fx and bend the card. Software?

its a nice scene but extremely blurry and very hard to enjoy the finer details of the piece.

Very Nice, good DOF too. Maybe the FX team from charlies Angels 2 should ask you to do their lighting, cause your bullet looks much better, than their tank shaped bullet in the trailer. =(

Max-r don't worry about your English, I still understand. . . I don't know if a Flash lighting scheme is the best, I think the scene would work better with natural lighting from whatever environment it is in.

Nice work, but keep going with it.

i think the image is cool, great job-:buttrock: just would like to add, that when you photograph in highspeed a bullet like the situation you have here, it would be super crisp, no blur. high speed photography stops time, you would see every detail of the moment. just wanted to add that, but it isn't real, it's a fake world so i guess you can do whatever you want.
