Preparation

[madshutterbug]

Today's entry is preparation work for next month's Camera Club competition. I'm embarking on another experiment here, to provide you folks with time to kick me some on whether the image works or not. Camera Club allows me to enter a total of six photos into the critique/competition: 2 in Colour, 2 in Monochrome, and 2 in Creative (Non-photo-realistic). The theme for next month is 'Mirror', looking to get both the reflecting surface and the subject reflected into the photograph.

Increase, yes, but possibly by compressing the midtones and expanding the shadows and highlights.
What technique are you using to increase your contrast?

Contrast & Brightness, increase contrast (+11 IIRC), no change on brightness.
