CHERRIES ! Pentax 645Z + 645 A 120 mm f/4 @ f/11
Lens: 645 A 120 mm f/4 MACRO Camera: Pentax 645Z Photo Location: Quebec, CANADA ISO: 800 Shutter Speed: 1/6s Aperture: F11

Now, CHERRIES ! I set them in a bowl in my window, mounted my 645Z on a tripod and played with my tripod height to compose various pictures. The Macro 120 mm permits to compose with high or medium magnification levels, according to the subject distance. Use of Av mode gives total exposure automation, all you have to do is focus critically.

GEEEEZZZZ!!! What a beautiful two image series. Your work is really amazing and just wonderful to soak it all in. The light and deep reds and even some burgundy/wine colors are handled

extremely well. This close with CWA Metering. It would be interesting to see the results you would get with Spot Metering. Thanks a million for sharing. True nice work here.

The mode of metering does not really change the images much. What plays the major role in the final result is the "COLOR PALETTE" you select in your camera settings. I alternate between "VIBRANT" and "REVERSAL FILM". VIBRANT boosts the color "BLUE" too much sometimes, like when there are reflections in the water from a blue sky outside. Then I use REVERSAL FILM to attenuate BLUE and obtain a more neutral look.
