Picture of a mouse

Hi, i just bought this mouse because i searched a flat mouse. I was fascinated about the surface of this mouse and the reflection of the light from this surface. I tried to capture this in a photo. How do you think about the lighting? Comments are welcome. Thanks, Matthias

Hey Matthias, I like your image and I like how the lighting shows the shape very well.

From a composition point of view I personally would like to see the mouse from an other angle that would compliment its form a little better.

For the lighting the only thing I would prefer is if the bottom of the mouse would have a little more separation with the surface it is resting on.

Keep up the nice work!

Hi Claude,
thanks for your comment. Which angle would you propose to compliment the form of the mouse?
I want to let the bottom in the dark, but maybe it´s too dark. On my monitor it´s not too dark but It could be that my monitor is not correct calibrated.
Thanks
Matthias

I would like to see the mouse a bit more like a 3/4 shot from the rear. It's so nice and smooth that I personally would like to see the longest side of the mouse to create depth.

Austin, Texas Blue Hour

Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.

Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!

My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.
