No stranger to the winners' enclosure, Finbarr O'Shea took first place in Grade A in our recent 'Easter' competition with the comedic shot above. This is how he made it:
My shot for the Easter competition was taken in the Curragh Wood near Midleton. I bought a few bags of mini eggs and headed for the wood a few eggs lighter!
I placed them in different positions and shot a variety of images. Later, I processed a few in Lightroom, and picked one that i was happy with. In the meantime, following a club tutorial on compositing images, I gave it a try, dropping in a bird on to the main image, using Perfect Photo Suite 9.
The main picture was shot at F.8 1/10 sec ISO 100. The bird was shot at F.8 1/320 sec 400 ISO no flash.
