Threw some old keys on a table to lay in a random fashion before photographing as per my challenge requirements.

This image was specifically created for a Personal Project created by our project randomiser. This photo was created using the following randomly chosen criteria:

Theme: Objects
Light: On Camera Flash
Focal Distance: 200mm-300mm
Location: Indoors
Colour Type: Black and White

Cool, I like the subtle reflection, at first glance it looks like there is a shadow but it's a reflection of the unlit side of one of the keys.

A thought did cross my mind yesterday about focal length, should we use 35mm equivalents? P&S shooters will struggle with most of these if it's actual focal length.

Thanks Merv,
I think the objective would be to photograph in actual focal lengths.

Thanks Dennis,
When going through the selections on the PP selector, you can check the box to the left of the focal length and the other options to save that option before continuing to re-select. This being an option, you can therefore save the focal length within your own equiptment range to suit your own requirements.

I like this one. Subtle reflection works so well. I like the highs and lows of the B&W shading too. Great job.
