lightbox!  pag pedals and small stuff pwede sa lightbox, o ginagawa ko  yung puting kartolina/felt paper na malaki tapos isang flash. or pag cellphone lang, ganun din, except kukuha ako ng maayos na LED light tapos side lighting  :lol:

Sa gear in general, ok yung naka-focus sa details, tapos naka artsy angle tulad nung fender na yan. Pwede rin yung super abstract tulad nitong super lumang shot ko na to (nagblur yung string for some reason pero ayos naman yung fretboard. hm.)



Iniisip ko rin for post processing importante yung saktong sharpening lang, tapos bonus points kung yung editor mo may shadow/vibrance/ambience controls, dun pwede palabasin yung mga grain ng wood without making the whole image super contrasty.
