High Contrast, Over-exposed Black and White MacroThis black and white photo is deliberately taken with the shutter speed set at 1 second, with the ISO set at 1600 to achieve the effect of a whitewashed background.

Then I tweaked it further using a photo editor to create an unrealistically high contrast picture. I’m experimenting.

Pretty cool. Do you ever have problems with getting the reflection of the camera on items you are photographing ?

Ya, most of the time I have that problem… I guess an anti glare filter can solve that prob;em
