After Glow

This is the last in a set of guitar images that I posted last week. For this image, the guitar body was shot against a black backdrop with a single speedlite. I masked the black background to solid black in Photoshop before sending it to PhotoTools for some styling. I used the Blur Tool in Photoshop to soften the edge of the guitar body against the background and sent it back to Lightroom for a few final tweaks.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Very cool shot Curt. Great composition and processing.
Great shot, Curt. Something about the B&W treatment that makes this special.

I am in love with this. The b/w and framing make it look outworldly at first, but then you notice what you’re looking at. This would look awesome on my iPhone and iPad!
